Key Takeaways
- Pain Point Solved: Chaotic workflows, delayed deliveries, or quality gaps in first-time partnerships.
- Core Value: Cut communication costs by 30% and guarantee 100% first 合作 success.
Step-by-Step Implementation
1. Prepare a Complete Requirement Package
Don’t miss:
- 3D drawings (STEP/IGES format).
- Part function (e.g., "airbag cover" vs. "sensor housing").
- Annual production volume (e.g., 50,000 units).
- Heya Support: Free "requirement checklist template" to avoid missing key details.
2. Get a DFM Report Before Signing Contracts
- Pitfall: Skipping DFM leads to 2+ weeks of design rework later.
- Correct Flow: Heya provides a free DFM report (includes manufacturability checks + cost optimizations) to confirm feasibility upfront.
3. Embed Quality Standards in Contracts
Explicitly define:
- Dimensional tolerance (e.g., ±0.01mm).
- Surface roughness (e.g., Ra ≤0.008μm).
- Certifications (e.g., IATF 16949 for automotive).
- Heya Guarantee: Every mold ships with a CMM inspection report for data traceability.
4. Track Key Project Milestones
- Critical Timelines:
- Design approval (T1).
- Prototype mold testing (T2).
- Mass production (T3).
- Heya Commitment: 12–15 day lead time for prototype molds, with real-time updates (including machining videos) at each stage.
5. Validate Prototypes Rigorously
- Test with your target resin (e.g., PC/ABS for automotive parts).
- Inspect 30+ samples for dimensional consistency.
- Heya Service: Post-test defect analysis + free mold adjustments until prototypes meet standards.
