Project Fit

When low-volume injection molding is suitable

This service is suitable when the product needs a real production mold, but the first confirmed quantity is still limited. It is often used for product validation, first customer delivery, replacement parts or early market testing.

New plastic product development before larger production

Custom plastic parts from 3D drawings, 2D drawings or samples

First batch production after mold trial and sample approval

Replacement plastic parts for industrial, electrical or daily-use products

Mold export with trial samples and operation notes

Engineering Review

Key points checked before mold design

Shengqi reviews the part and production plan before confirming tooling direction, because small batch projects still need stable dimensions, repeatable molding and clear sample approval.

Part Structure

Wall thickness, ribs, undercuts, draft angle, visible surfaces, assembly positions and tolerance requirements are reviewed before mold design.

Material Direction

PP, ABS, PET, PC, PA and reinforced plastic options can be reviewed according to product application, strength, surface and working environment.

Mold Plan

Gate location, runner type, cooling layout, ejection, slides, inserts, cavity quantity and machine requirements are discussed according to project quantity.

First Batch Production

After trial samples are approved, Shengqi can discuss 500-1,000 pcs first batch production, packing requirements and delivery schedule.

Project Workflow

From product file review to first batch delivery

The same basic engineering workflow applies whether the first batch is 500 pcs, 1,000 pcs or a larger production order.

1. Project File Review

Send product drawings, sample photos, material direction, expected quantity and delivery country. Shengqi reviews whether the project is suitable for injection molding and first batch production.

2. Mold Structure Discussion

The team checks part structure, gate and runner direction, cooling, ejection, slide requirements and possible molding risks before confirming the quotation basis.

3. Tooling and Trial Samples

After mold manufacturing, trial samples are produced for dimensional, appearance, assembly and functional review. Mold adjustment is handled according to approval feedback.

4. 500-1,000 pcs First Batch

When samples are approved, Shengqi can arrange a first batch production run for project validation, market testing, assembly checks or customer delivery.

For Quotation

Information needed for mold and first batch review

Complete project information makes the mold plan, sample target and production cost easier to review before tooling starts.
