What are the factors that affect the price of prototype customization

many customers are very anxious to know the price when customizing the prototype. Once the drawing is sent, I hope we will give the corresponding price immediately. In fact, the price of the prototype can not be reported immediately. It will be affected by many factors, mainly reflected in the following aspects.

1. Quantity: the price of the prototype customization is related to the quantity, we all know-- Whether you want to make a prototype or 100 prototypes, you only need to program it once, so the more the number of prototypes is done, the lower the labor rate the average prototype spends, so the lower it will be. Because of this, many customers hope that the prototype factory can make a prototype with the unit price of 10 prototypes. In response to this situation, many prototype factories are quite helpless, and customers do not listen to the explanation.

2. Materials: the price of prototype customization has an inseparable relationship with materials, according to the customer's needs, the selected materials are different, so the price is also different. For materials with high temperature resistance, both PC and PPS are optional materials, but the price of PPS is higher than that of PC, of course, its performance is better than that of PC; Even the same material, the imported material and the domestic material are also different in price.

3, accuracy: the customer's accuracy requirements for prototype products are high and high, and the higher the accuracy requirements, the processing needs to be finer, involving the technical problems of equipment and tools used and post-processing, and the risk and scrap rate increase.

4. Surface treatment process: if there are many processes needed for a prototype, such as polishing, fuel injection, silk screen printing, electroplating, laser carving, etc. at the same time, such a complicated process will lead to an increase in the corresponding labor costs, the price of the prototype will also increase accordingly.

to sum up, the price of prototype customization is mainly affected by the quantity of prototype processing, materials, processing accuracy and surface treatment process.
