SEMIFINISHED PART
Manufacturing

Semi-finished contacts are a preliminary step in the manufacturing of contact parts. Technical and economic aspects determine the manufacturing technology to be used. Mechanical, electrical, thermal, electro-thermal, as well as physical processes are applied to blend materials with sometimes very different physical and technological properties.
Semi-finished products with aluminum cladded surfaces and the punched parts manufactured from them are used in hybrid housings for electronic applications. At the interface between electromechanical connectors and electronic subassemblies, aluminum is used as a bondable surface. Semi-finished products with selective solder layer are the basic product for safety fuses.

CUSTOM PART
Manufacturing
(New Definition - Better):
A custom part is designed and manufacturing for a specific purpose in a specific product or product line rather than for generic purpose in several different products. Custom parts that are incorporated into the subassemlies and assemblies of products and machines are often referred to as piece parts. Custom parts that stand alone as products are referred to as single-part products.

(Previous Answer)
Custom components, which are parts designed especially for the product, are made by the manufacturer or by a supplier. Most custom components are produced using the same types of production processes as standard components (e.g., injection molding, stamping, machining); however, custom parts are typically special-purpose parts, useful only in a particular manufacturer’s product.
(Kalpakjian S., Schmid S.R.,Manufacturing engineering and technology, 5th Edition, p. 217)

STANDART PARTS
Manufacturing
Parts are either standard or special purpose. A standart part is a member of a class of parts that has a generic function and is manufactured routinely without reference to its use in any particular product. Excamples of standard parts are screws, bolts, rivets, jar tops, buttons, most beams, gears, springs, and washers. Tooling for standard parts is usually on hand and ready for use by manufacturers. Manufacturers, dşstrubuters or vendors often carry standard parts themselves in stock. Standard parts are most frequently selected by designers from catalogs, often with help from vendors.
