More about this project

This is the process for EXACTMEC aluminum die casting molds: assess the product information, agree the quotation, prepare the mold design after payment, manufacture after approval, and ship the mold after your trial sample acceptance.

01

Describe the product and provide a drawing or sample

Start with the product for which you need a mold.

Project details

Start with the product for which you need a mold. Clear 2D or 3D product drawings, or a physical sample, are required for quotation. Let us know which information is available when you complete the inquiry.

Include the number of mold sets, the planned purchasing time and any requirements you already know. If you have a particular budget, you may share it with a currency, but a budget alone cannot define the mold. A basic inquiry is welcome before all quotation information is ready.

02

Review the quotation and confirm the order details

We review the available information and discuss the proposed mold project with you.

Project details

We review the available information and discuss the proposed mold project with you. The quotation needs to reflect the product requirements and the mold supply scope, rather than a generic price for a pictured part.

Payment terms, sample arrangements, transport and other order details are settled in direct communication. Website information and the initial inquiry do not replace the quotation or create an order. Clarify any point that will affect your decision before making payment.

03

Approve the 3D mold design after payment

After customer payment, we prepare the 3D mold design and send it for confirmation.

Project details

After customer payment, we prepare the 3D mold design and send it for confirmation. This approval stage comes before mold manufacturing. It is not a mold design service promised before quotation.

Check the design with your project team and raise questions before confirming it. If your product requirements have changed since quotation, tell us at this stage. The current approved information should remain clear to everyone involved.

04

Manufacture the mold after design confirmation

Manufacturing starts after you confirm the mold design.

Project details

Manufacturing starts after you confirm the mold design. EXACTMEC coordinates this stage with manufacturing partners and remains your contact for project communication.

The typical timing is approximately 30–40 days from customer payment. That starting point is payment, even though manufacturing follows design approval. It is an estimate rather than a promise that the mold will reach your site within that period. Confirm the relevant project milestones when discussing the order.

05

Test the samples, then receive the mold

After the mold is completed, we conduct a mold trial and send the resulting samples to you.

Project details

After the mold is completed, we conduct a mold trial and send the resulting samples to you. Your team tests the samples and provides feedback against the agreed requirements. Keep that feedback connected to the relevant sample and drawing version.

Once you confirm the samples are acceptable, we arrange shipment of the completed mold. Testing, feedback and shipping are distinct steps. Discuss sample quantities, transport arrangements and any concerns directly with us so the next action is clear.
