In our daily lives, many products are manufactured through Sheet Metal Processing, such as stainless steel doors, coffee machine casings, stainless steel distribution cabinets, large equipment racks, air conditioning brackets, and other various chassis and cabinets. The vast majority of metal products can be achieved through sheet metal processing. So with so many types, how do we quote appropriately?
In fact, many sheet metal processing products have the same general quotation method, and the quotation that truly affects sheet metal processing mainly depends on the difficulty level of the workpiece. Some workpiece products are simple to make, and require fewer or less complex processing steps, which can quickly provide a quotation. However, there are some more complex workpieces, which require multiple processing steps to produce a workpiece. At this time, the sheet metal processing quotation will be high, from cutting, punching, riveting, welding, polishing, etc., different processes require different processing costs, mainly depending on the method of the workpiece. Of course, some experienced salespeople will consider designing another processing method to eliminate complex processing techniques and achieve one-step results, reducing costs.
The quotation for sheet metal processing is mainly based on processing procedures, labor costs, material costs, processing equipment costs, and process factors. Each of these factors will affect the final quotation, such as the process. Good process costs will be higher, while poor process costs will be lower, depending on the talent of the people in the factory. Of course, some factories have their own set of process pricing standards, and each factory will have differences, some high and some low, so the prices quoted by each company for the same product will be different.
The quotation for sheet metal processing is not difficult, as long as you understand the processing costs of various processes, you can easily solve it. The more experience you have, the more flexible the quotation method will be.
