What sourcing a joint looks like.
A worked example of how a single spec becomes ranked, comparable quotes. Named design-partner stories are coming soon.
The ask
A humanoid team needs a 100:1 harmonic reducer, ~60 N·m rated, ≤1 arcmin backlash, under Ø50mm — 40 units for a hip joint.
The old way
Forty emails to factories across time zones, three weeks of waiting, quotes in mismatched units and currencies.
With Linkway
One sentence in. The agent matched 4 qualified suppliers, ran the RFQ, and returned normalized quotes — price, lead time, MOQ, certs, fit — in one table.
The outcome
Comparable quotes the same week, with the export-readiness and quality signals needed to commit with confidence.
