Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Find answers to common questions about our processes, from initial RFQ to production and delivery.
What helps determine the initial manufacturing path?
Process routing depends on drawing definitions, part family characteristics, material specifications, quantity path, and documentation requirements.
Can projects move from prototype to repeat production?
Yes. Many projects start with prototype or pilot validation before moving into repeat production once the design and process are confirmed.
How are drawings and RFQ files handled?
All drawings, specifications, and client geometries are handled under contract-manufacturing confidentiality workflows.
How are tolerance requirements reviewed?
Tolerance capability is reviewed feature by feature because CNC machining and sheet metal fabrication have different limits depending on geometry, material, and process route.
Do you offer manufacturability or DFM review?
Yes. Manufacturability or DFM review can be provided upon request during RFQ review to help align design intent, cost, and production feasibility before release.
How are lead times determined?
Lead times depend on part complexity, material availability, quantity, and current production load. We provide estimated timing during RFQ review.
