Qimtek Today

With a machining spend of over £50,000 per year, this company is looking for a supplier to machine these newly-designed pressure plugs, which will be used as part of the pump and valve industry. Quotes are required for 10, 25 and 50 off with price, quality and delivery turnaround being of equal importance for this enquiry. Although the initial order value will be low, this will lead to a total order of 1000 off over the next 2 years, so will suit those looking for a long-term relationship with a new client. Please note that the order will be for 2 different metals which share the same drawing; the first requirement of 10, 25 and 50 off made from Nickel Aluminium Bronze and the second requirement of 10, 25 and 50 off to be made from Inconel. Please ignore the Stainless Steel material indicated on the drawing, as this is not required.

Plastic & Rubber-Plastic Fabrication

This client is looking for a supplier to water jet the attached universal stands, using free-issue black ABS 5mm thick sheet which will be free-issued to the chosen supplier. Water jetting has been requested initially due to the nature of the pieces fitting together; however, the client will explore other processes if they prove more efficient and upkeep the high quality and clean finish required. Quotes are required for 100 sets, comprising of 200 off part A, 100 off part B and 100 off part C. These stands will be used as consumer products, so the finish needs to be of an extremely high quality with no burrs, scratches, marks or any signs of abrasion. The CAD file attached to this enquiry can be adjusted by the chosen supplier to suit their own tolerances if needed.
