01Active contact geometry
Release controlDimension conductive area, exposed opening, edge margin, center, orientation, and any paired or connected site spacing.
If it is missingA visually similar patch presents a different effective contact area to the OEM system.
02Printed trace and insulation
Release controlRelease ink, trace width, routing, dielectric coverage, isolation gaps, registration marks, and protected areas.
If it is missingConductors are exposed, misregistered, or electrically different from the approved circuit.
03Snap, tab, or tail handoff
Release controlName attachment hardware, tail pitch, connector, reinforcement, orientation, mating part, bend zone, and pull method.
If it is missingThe patch passes electrical inspection but does not mate reliably with the customer cable or device.
04Skin-interface material zones
Release controlMap project-specified adhesive, hydrogel, foam, nonwoven, conductive opening, adhesive-free zone, and liner.
If it is missingMaterial overlap covers the active site or leaves an unintended exposed edge.
05Die cut and assembly datum
Release controlControl outside profile, holes, reliefs, layer overlap, snap location, tail exit, tolerance, and assembly orientation.
If it is missingThe circuit, converted layers, and connector shift relative to one another.
06Inspection and package state
Release controlDefine print, dimensions, continuity, resistance method, attachment, liner, label, count, pouch or tray, and traceability.
If it is missingAccepted patches arrive contaminated, damaged, unlabeled, or in the wrong handling state.
