Is it easy to process and produce something when it is small? Is it easy to produce products with simple appearance design?
In production, we usually think that the smaller the thing, the harder it is to make. Because the product itself is small in size, it requires higher precision, so the more attention should be paid during production and processing. If you are not careful or any detail is not handled well, the product will be reported. Therefore, for small products, from the perspective of a single product, the proportion of its materials is very small, and sometimes the material cost can even be ignored. However, because of the high requirements for processing equipment and high processing precision, its processing cost is often more expensive than those products that are many times larger in volume.
For products with simple appearance design, we often just look at the appearance. Indeed, if the appearance is simple and not complicated, it should be simple to process. At this time, we need to analyze the specific problem. If it is just a simple straight line cutting, it is indeed very simple in production. You just need to simply cut the materials into pieces and splice them. However, if it is a curved surface, the problem becomes complicated. If the curved surface is not processed well, the surface of the product will become very rough or uneven in appearance. Curved surfaces also have their own flatness. Only overly smooth curved surfaces can correctly restore the design itself. So many times, simple designs actually require higher production requirements.
When we produce EVA foam products, customers sometimes have questions, “We just simply dig a hole in it to put the product, how can it be so much more expensive than cross-cutting?” Customers will not understand that the time required to ensure the flatness and smoothness of the surface is far less than that of cross-cutting. Customers will only see that the one-piece molded lining is better looking than the one that is stamped and then glued, and the integrity is also better. Do we need to explain it in detail to the customer? We can explain it to the customer, but don’t try to convince the customer. Because if the customer does not suffer losses in other ways, the customer will not believe our words. They will think that everything is for sales. So what we need to do is to insist on high-quality product production, strive to improve our skills, and leave the rest to time.
