OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
What it means: You provide the design, and the manufacturer produces it.
Blade example: You design the tungsten steel blade – its shape, hardness, edge geometry, etc. – and the OEM factory just makes it to your exact specs.
Who uses this: Companies with their own R&D or product engineering teams.
Pros:
Full control over design and quality.
You own the intellectual property (IP).
Ideal for unique or specialized blade applications.
Cons:
Longer lead time (design, prototyping).
Higher costs initially due to customization.
ODM (Original Design Manufacturer)
What it means: The manufacturer already has a blade design; you just rebrand it.
Blade example: The factory offers pre-designed tungsten steel blades that you can label with your brand.
Who uses this: Companies focused on speed to market or cost efficiency.
Pros:
Faster and cheaper.
Great for standard applications.
Cons:
Limited design flexibility.
You don’t own the design or IP.
