What to Include in Your RFQ
For an accurate direct RFQ to a sheet metal factory, send your BOM and drawing package, 3D CAD files or engineering drawings, material requirements, target quantity, finishing requirements, and target lead time. Complete RFQ data helps Metalcax review manufacturability, pricing, assembly steps, and delivery feasibility before quotation.
What information should I include when requesting a sheet metal fabrication quote?
Please include your 3D CAD files or engineering drawings, material requirements, quantity, surface finish, assembly needs, BOM, drawing revision, target lead time, and any quality or inspection requirements. Complete RFQ information helps our team review manufacturability, pricing, and production feasibility more efficiently.
Can Metalcax manufacture parts from 3D CAD files or engineering drawings?
Yes. Metalcax provides custom sheet metal fabrication services for parts made from 3D CAD files or engineering drawings. To speed up the quotation process, we recommend sending both 3D files and 2D drawings when available, especially for parts with tight tolerances or assembly requirements.
What sheet metal materials does Metalcax work with?
Metalcax works with a range of sheet metal materials, including aluminum, copper, steel, and stainless steel. If your project requires a specific grade, thickness, surface finish, or material certificate, please include those details in your RFQ package.
Does Metalcax support prototyping and low volume production?
Yes. Metalcax has experience in prototyping, pre-series production, and low volume production of custom sheet metal parts. This makes us suitable for new product development, pilot builds, design validation, and early-stage manufacturing programs before full-scale production.
What industries does Metalcax serve?
Metalcax serves customers in electronics, communication, design and industrial applications, and machinery sectors. Typical projects may include sheet metal enclosures, brackets, panels, housings, machine parts, structural components, and assembled sheet metal products.
Does Metalcax provide sheet metal assembly services?
Yes. In addition to fabrication, Metalcax offers assembly services such as installing inserts, welding, and finishing services. If your project requires PEM inserts, welding locations, hardware installation, or cosmetic surface requirements, please specify these details in your RFQ.
Is it better to submit a direct RFQ to Metalcax or use a digital RFQ platform?
For standard price comparison, a digital RFQ platform may be useful. For custom sheet metal parts, a direct RFQ to Metalcax is often more efficient because engineers can review drawings, materials, assembly details, finishing requirements, and target lead time directly with your procurement or engineering team.
What questions should procurement ask before choosing a sheet metal supplier?
Procurement teams should ask about material options, production capacity, prototyping experience, low volume production capability, finishing services, assembly support, lead time, quality control process, drawing revision management, and whether the supplier can support future repeat orders.
How long does it take to receive a sheet metal fabrication quote?
Quotation time depends on the completeness and complexity of your RFQ. Projects with clear drawings, 3D CAD files, BOM details, material specifications, quantity, finishing requirements, and target lead time can usually be reviewed more efficiently than incomplete requests.
Have questions about your sheet metal project or quote?
Our team is here to help review your CAD files, engineering drawings, BOM, material options, finishing requirements, assembly needs, and target lead time—so you can get an accurate quote for prototyping, pre-series, or low volume production.
