How to customize non-standard screws to save cost?
There are two main production methods of non-standard screws, one is cold forming and the other is CNC. Sometimes, when the number of screws is small and the number of subsequent orders is small, it can be produced by CNC, because when the number is small, the cost of mold is too high and many customers can’t accept it. Moreover, the startup cost of multi station machines is also very high and customers can’t accept it.
However, when the number of non-standard screws is large, or the number is not large in the early stage, but the number will increase in the later stage, cold forming production can be selected, that is, the screw production can be completed by mold. Because when the number of screws increases, the cost of cold forming will be relatively low.
