Details of the tool making estimate. When the tool is first quoted for by the sales manager of the China injection mold manufacturer they make certain estimates for mold material costs, design costs, machining costs, assembling costs, trials costs, texturing and finishing costs pus delivery costs. The quotes should include as much of this information as possible so that the designed and the customer know what is expected. It will also help the designer to high light problems if material or parts are more than was estimated initially.
Part drawing. A fully detailed part drawing must be available, with part dimensions, tolerance and material clearly specified on the drawing. Any questions the mold designer may have should be discussed with the customer and if modification are needed the part drawings must be updated for the new part design. It is very important that both the China injection mold manufacturer, mold designer and customer are working from the same part drawing so as to avoid expensive mistakes. As a representative of WIT mold china, we work with you to define the part drawing and ensure the china injection mold maker understands fully the requirements.
Part geometry. The part drawing must be examined carefully so that the mold designer clearly understands the part and how it is to be molded. For example the mold designer must be able to decide whether it is a simple two plate mold, three-plate mold, multiple plate mold, side core, split stack mold etc. Also perhaps it is a case where the part would be easier and cheaper to mold as separate parts, this may simplify the design costs while adding to the mold material cost, however this is a point that would need to be discussed with the China injection mold manufacturer.
