FAQ<\/p>\n

Common questions<\/h2>\n
\n
\n\n

Which industries do you serve?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Bicycle and e-bike, motorcycle, adaptive and therapy cycling, skating sports, robotics and industrial equipment.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Which file formats can I send?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

STEP, STP, DWG, DXF and PDF \u2014 even a clear photo of a print works for a first feasibility opinion.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Which alloys can you forge?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

6061, 6063, 6082 and 7075 \u2014 every batch ships with a mill certificate.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

What quality documents do you provide?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

A mill certificate per alloy batch and a dimensional report with every shipment; PPAP and FAI documentation on request.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Do you support prototypes and small batches?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Yes \u2014 batches are quoted per part number depending on size and die amortisation, and prototypes are possible.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Can you machine and finish parts too?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Yes \u2014 CNC finishing to Ra 0.8 (per-drawing review), plus anodising Type II\/III, sandblasting, powder coating and electrophoresis.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Do you sign NDAs?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Yes. Tooling and dies are designed and built in-house, so your drawings never travel to a third-party die shop.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

How fast do you reply to a drawing?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Most drawings receive a feasibility opinion and cost range within 3 working days.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n

\n\n

Where do you ship from?<\/h2>\n<\/summary>\n

Our factory in Guangming District, Shenzhen, with export packing and worldwide delivery.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n
