Quick answer
Shipment photos for long ball screws should verify the order, not only prove that boxes were packed. Buyers should see model, length, quantity, nuts, labels, carton marks, end protection, bending prevention support, and packing condition.
Shipment photos should verify the order
Shipment photos should not be only one picture of a box. Buyers should be able to check model, length, quantity, nut quantity, label content, and packing condition. Distributor orders should also confirm customer labels and carton marks.
Product and label photos should be separate
Ask for product photos, label photos, carton marks, end protection photos, bending prevention support photos, and packing photos. For long ball screws, check whether support positions are enough and whether the ends and nuts are fixed.
Packing photos reveal transport risk
Packing photos can show whether the carton, hard tube, or wooden case has internal support, whether the product can move, whether the ends may be hit, and whether long parts have bending prevention support. Quantity check photos also help pre-shipment records.

FAQ
**Is one outer box photo enough?** No. It only shows outside packing; product, label, end protection, and internal support photos are needed to judge receiving risk.
