What Is the Minimum Order Quantity for a Custom Crawler Undercarriage?

Catalogue crawler undercarriages can be ordered as a single unit with no minimum consolidation, while non-standard builds typically need two to three because welding fixtures and tooling must be amortised. A pilot unit can be built first to validate fitment and duty, and its cost credited against the follow-on batch order, which is the usual risk-control route for OEM manufacturers. Running one pilot plus a batch of three to five lets wear and failure points feed back before production, which avoids repeating the same defect across the batch and is standard practice for OEM manufacturers.
