Questions

Tool and die FAQ

What should I send for a tooling quote?

Send part drawings, models, material specifications, expected production volume and your press or machine limits. Include photos if there is an existing tool.

Can I start with a drawing?

Send the drawing and ask whether the shop can prepare a part model. Confirm who approves it before toolmaking begins.

What should I ask about tool ownership?

Ask who owns the tool after payment, where it will be stored and what maintenance is included. Put those details in the quote.

Good to know

  • Give your expected production volume and ask how it affects the tool design.
  • No Edmonton shop we checked posts prices for this. Send a request to compare quotes.
