Q.:
How much time do you need to quote ?
A.: Unless the product has a very specific construction
usually a quotation for a mold is send in 3 work days after
we receive enquiry with all the necessary details.
Q.: What do you need to make a
quotation ?
A.: To make quotation which will be adequate and
sufficiently competitive, we need 3 things:
1. Product drawing or 3D model data file or product
sample. If none of these are available, we need at least an
ordinary sketch with the most critical dimensions of the
product on it.
2. Kind of plastic resin you are going to use in
manufacturing or an idea of the durability of the product (
what the product is or does ).
3. Estimated quantity of the product needed in a
period of time ( i.e. one month ) and the idea of how many
products in total you are going to make ( estimated total
sales ).
Q.: I would like to have my
mold built faster than you quoted. Is it possible ?
A.: PMP's mold building lead time does not belong to the
lengthy ones. On special request from clients and depending
on our work load it is some times possible to make mold
faster though the advancement cannot be big, just a few
days.
Q.: Is it possible without a
visit in your company to know whether my mold is being built
on schedule ?
A.: On clients requests we are giving a detailed mold
building schedule and send weekly reports. The report may
have digital pictures that show the progress of work
Q.: Why your PMP Mold often offer
almost 10%- 20% more competitive quotation then another
company. What is the reason for that ?
A.: There are always 3 factors that have to be balanced and
are reflected in every quotation: mold quality, delivery
time and price. Quotations given by PMP have the 3 things
well harmonized. The reason that you got a more competitive
quotation for the same product is lying somewhere in that
harmony.
Q.: Is is possible to build a
mold for a price cheaper than I received in PMP's quotation
?
A.: There are many cases which we can notice when mold
requirements are too exaggerated because of difficulties in
exact defining of necessary product parameters . It is
therefore extremely important to share with us all the
information about the product, its use, functions etc. This
will help us to look for a way to reduce costs given on
quotation and in result your cost of mold
Q.: Can you only design a mold
for me?
A.: As mold manufacturers it is not desirable for us to make
only designs so we can take such order only as an exception
