PFMOLD engineering notes
ABS injection mold quotation checklist for DFM review for automotive parts should start from the real part geometry, because size, projected area, wall thickness and feature complexity directly change mold cost and part unit price.
PFMOLD normally checks material selection, cavity count, runner or feeding system, steel grade, surface finish, trial schedule and export delivery requirement before confirming price.
A useful RFQ package includes STEP/STP/IGES files, 2D tolerance drawings, annual quantity, target material, color, finish, destination port and preferred shipment method.
For export projects, the quotation should keep mold cost, product unit price, packing size, gross weight, sea freight or air freight assumptions and payment milestone in one traceable record.
