Why do prototype quotations always seem like “a flying kite” with no accuracy?

"Prototype" originally referred to samples that were purely crafted by hand, which is why it's called a "prototype". Back then, it was a headache to get a quote for prototypes, and calculating the cost was harder than climbing a mountain. In the past, labor costs accounted for the majority of prototype proofing, but it was basically impossible to calculate the labor costs accurately.

Why? The craftsmanship of each craftsman is like fingerprints, which are different from each other. The time spent on the prototype is naturally different. It is like asking different chefs to make the same dish. It is sure that the time it takes will be longer or shorter. Therefore, when quoting, there is no one pricing standard that can "unify the world". Every time the price is quoted to the customer, the customer often objects to the price and shouts that the price is too high. Sometimes they will question: "Did you quote the wrong price?"

How can we ensure that the prototype quotation is “smoothly landed” and extremely accurate?

The masters in our industry are not idle. The masters of hand-polishing of prototypes, masters of oil spraying and silk screen printing, technicians of silicone mold duplication , CNC processing masters, programming masters, as well as code editing engineers, mathematical engineers, etc., a group of people gathered together, after years of experience accumulation, repeated calculations and pondering, just like solving a super complex mathematical problem, and finally came up with a super powerful standard calculation formula. Then this formula was incorporated into the intelligent system and connected to the official website of the Industrial Man Product RP&M Co.,Ltd. This is amazing, as fast as lightning, it can provide customers with accurate prototype processing cost accounting and realize fully automatic quotation. It is simply a "superhero" in the quotation industry.

How to operate this “magic tool” called automatic quotation system?

The software of this quotation system is extremely compatible, just like a super "storage master" that can install anything. 3D drawings in various formats such as UG, STP, STPE, IGS, PLOESTP, etc. can all be thrown into our quotation system to calculate the cost. The operation is as simple as eating a piece of cake, and there are two versions, Chinese and English, for you to choose. Import the 3D data, check the material name, select the processing type, and then click the processing quantity. Hey, just wait for 3 seconds, and the prototype quotation will automatically "pop up".

 At the same time, the system will also show the size and weight of the prototype. If you select different quantities, it can give different prototype unit prices and total prices. If you check whether to color or not, the price will change accordingly, just like magic.

What “super powers” does the system quotation have?

It responds as fast as a rocket and the quotation is very standardized. In the past, customers had to find many prototype factories for quotations, and then compare them one by one. In the end, they were like ants on a hot pot and could not make up their minds. As a result, the development cycle was delayed and the time for the product to be put on the market was delayed.

Now with this automatic quotation system, customers can immediately decide the budget for making prototypes, making the prototype processing as simple as children playing house. Isn’t it great?
