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
