Minimum Order Quantity for Custom Zamak Medical Components
MOQ Considerations in Medical-Grade Zamak Casting
Custom Zamak medical components—such as housings, handles, connectors, and latch parts—are often produced with high dimensional precision and surface quality requirements. While medical parts typically require compliance with sterilization, traceability, and material certifications, Neway offers flexible minimum order quantities (MOQ) to accommodate both pilot production and scalable manufacturing.
Standard MOQ for Custom Zamak Medical Parts
Neway’s standard MOQ for custom Zamak medical components depends on tooling readiness, part complexity, and finishing requirements:
Production Type | MOQ Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Prototype/Trial Run | 50–200 units | With existing or soft tooling, ideal for validation testing |
Low-Volume Production | 500–1,000 units | For clinical trials, regional supply, or bridge tooling |
Standard Production MOQ | 2,000–5,000 units | With dedicated mold, optimized for cost efficiency |
High-Volume Production | 10,000+ units | Suited for global distribution and long-term supply |
Neway supports scalable production based on your project phase—from design validation to commercial launch.
Factors Affecting MOQ
Tooling method: Soft tooling allows lower MOQs for early-stage testing
Part complexity: High-detail medical parts with tight tolerances may require higher setup costs and thus higher MOQ
Surface finish: Specialized coatings or plating (e.g., nickel-free, antimicrobial) may require batch processing
Assembly or kitting: MOQ may increase if sub-assembly or packaging is involved
