01. No pre-production sample prior to mass production | v.20221215
1.1 • Potential risks
1.1.1 • New projects
There are great potential risks in starting mass production without pre-production samples, provided it is a new project. The potential risks can be as follows:
1 • The materials we use may not meet your expectations (such as the hardness, stiffness, toughness, feeling by touch, and so on)
2 • The design structure and size of the product may not meet your expectations (e.g. the assembly).
3 • Inability to evaluate the rationality of the design files.
4 • Inability to judge if the colors will meet your expectations.
5 • Any mistakes that exist in the files may be missed (such as words, images, designs, die-cut tooling, etc.)
6 • The overall effect of the finished product is not seen (such as the effect of lamination, spot UV, stamping foil, the position of the patterns, and the effect of design patterns.)
1.1.2 • Repeat orders (without modifications)
There are no risks in starting mass production without pre-production samples in this case
1.1.3 • Repeat orders (with modifications)
For repeat orders with modifications, the potential risks can be as follows:
1 • The modified materials used may not meet your expectations (such as the hardness, stiffness, toughness, feeling by touch and so on)
2 • The modified design structure and size of the product may not meet your expectations (e.g. the assembly).
3 • Inability to evaluate the rationality of the modified design files.
4 • Inability to judge if the modified colors will meet your expectations.
5 • Any mistakes in the modified fles may be missed (such as words, images, designs, die-cut tooling, etc.)
6 • The overall effect of the finished product after modification is not seen (such as the effect of lamination, spot UV, stamping foil, the position of the patterns, and the effect of design patterns.)
