Can one RFQ include both casting and machining?
Yes. Send the full drawing package and mark the machined surfaces, tolerances, and inspection requirements so the casting and machining route can be reviewed together.
What details affect the machined casting price?
Material, casting weight, machining allowance, tolerance level, number of setups, fixture difficulty, surface treatment, inspection reports, packing, quantity, and sample approval all affect quotation.
Can you review a sample before a complete drawing is available?
Photos and samples can start the discussion, but quotation needs confirmed dimensions, material, quantity, critical features, and inspection expectations.
