Independent-distribution sourcing posture
The 1FK7042-5AF71-1PA0: For an eol_hot servo motor the storefront sources against an RFQ from independent distribution: quote is built on the BOM line, factory-traceable packaging and date code are confirmed at offer time, and current pricing is returned with the RFQ rather than posted as a list figure. Let me be transparent — once the Siemens authorised channel is exhausted, the warranty envelope is whatever the independent desk carries, and the buyer's own incoming-inspection (nameplate versus PO, encoder resolution versus drive parameter set) is the safety net rather than the OEM RMA path.
