How is the price of plastic mold calculated?

01-04-2024

Today, with the rapid development of high-tech, various electronic products are dizzying. The production and manufacturing of various types of electronic products are inseparable from plastic molds. Dongguan Yuzhuo Precision has more than 10 years of rich experience in plastic mold manufacturing and design. Here, I will talk to you about how plastic molds are priced.

 

1. The size and shape of plastic mold products are simple and traditional. This determines the corresponding structure of the mold, which is directly related to the cost of the mold.

 

2. The size and appearance requirements of plastic mold products require precision and high appearance requirements, and the processing costs are different.

3. The requirement for the number of mold cavities in plastic molds is to open and close the mold once and produce several products, one or more at a time. This is generally only available for products that are not too large.

 

4. The expected mold production volume of plastic molds determines the material to be used and also affects the cost.

 

If you want to accurately calculate the pricing of plastic molds, you usually have to wait until the plastic mold is officially produced. However, the price difference between each plastic mold factory is a bit large, because each plastic mold factory has different requirements for profit points.

In addition, the structure of the product is very important. This involves processing costs. The more complex the structure, the more expensive the processing. There are also the so-called management fees, trial mold fees, etc. of some large companies.

 

So, how is the cost of plastic molds calculated?

 

1. Look at the mold structure. Is it a two-plate mold? Three-plate mold? Do you use hot glue? If there are any special requirements, such as resetting first, pushing out with push plate, whether hinge teeth, refueling cylinder, etc. are needed, the mold structure should be clarified first.

2. Look at the material of the mold core. Depending on the size of the mold core and the difficulty of processing, such as more ribs and more electrodes, the processing fee will definitely be higher. Also, how much does it cost to add a sloped roof, how much does it cost to add a slider, and there is a difference between the front mold slider and the rear mold slider. The sloped roof of the front mold and the sloped roof of the rear mold are also different.

 

3. Look at the size of the mold base. Different brands vary.

 

4. Look at the transportation costs. For example, if you want to export something abroad, you also need to add the cost of trial molding, sample delivery, taxes, etc.

Due to the complex production situation of plastic mold manufacturers, in actual work, various cost calculation methods are often used at the same time or in combination. This mainly depends on the production characteristics of the plastic mold manufacturer. The goal is to not only correctly calculate the product cost, but also simplify the cost accounting work.
