Can I order samples before committing to larger quantities? 🔬
1. Sample Orders Encouraged
Absolutely — Makelab encourages sample orders before production runs.
2. Why Order Samples First
Verify material properties and finish quality
Test fit and function in your application
Evaluate strength and durability under real conditions
Confirm color and surface texture meet expectations
Catch design issues before investing in volume production
3. Sample Order Process
- Order 1-3 sample parts through our standard quoting process
- Test and evaluate the samples
- Request design modifications if needed
- Once approved, proceed with larger quantity order
4. Production Pricing After Samples
Once you've validated your design with samples and are ready for production quantities (50+ parts), ask about volume discounts during your production quote.
5. Material Testing
If you're unsure which material is right for your application, we recommend ordering samples in 2-3 different materials to compare performance.
6. Sample Timeline
Samples follow the same production timeline as regular orders. For faster turnaround, ask about rush service for your sample parts.
7. How to Order Samples
