Low Volume Manufacturing & Low Volume Production – The Top 4 Benefits
Low volume manufacturing & low volume production allows you to get small volume plastic and metal parts without quantity process limitation.
What is Low Volume Manufacturing
Low-volume Injection Molding Low-volume Pressure Die Casting Low-volume CNC Machining
Depending on the process, tooling and material being used, this can be raised up from 50 to 100,000 parts. It is a bridge to connect rapid prototype and full-scale production in millions quantity. We can test the product and market by Low Volume Manufacturing method. It’s also a viable way to get your products launch the market quickly while letting you respond fast to design modifications and shorten rapid manufacturing cycle time.
The Top 4 Benefits of Low Volume Manufacturing
1. Save your cost
Most people think if you want to make part cheaper, you should make a larger volume, it is obvious that manufacturing costs (injection molding cost, CNC machining cost etc.) per unit will go down if order volume goes up. But actually, will it really save your cost by ordering more parts? Not really, for mass production – especially for plastic injection molding and pressure die casting, you must invest a lot in the tooling, durable steel to withstand the rigor of large-scale production, meanwhile, when a factory has set up massive inventory of raw materials and production lines, they usually ask you to place a large MOQ quantity order, but you just need hundreds or thousands products currently…, for the long run, your project is constrained by cash flow shortage.
2. Quick time to market
With the constant demand to innovate, the technological change is increasing all the time. It is really bring great pressure to product developer for creating new design or modifying the existed one in a short time frame. Being the first or later to market can be the difference to success and failure. This is the ideal way for you to make enough volume to be sell able without creating an unsustainable burden of inventory. Due to the low-volume needs, we can make your parts in days instead of weeks or months.
3. Allow design flexibility
Low Volume Production allows you to have changes on your product, make the best and ideal product to seize market share.
4. Option for bridge production
To verify the design and solve the possible defects existing in new products so as to avoid any risk before mass production.
