Low Volume Manufacturing Services

Compared to batch production, low-volume manufacturing is a specialized service that offers full production-quality parts. But in volumes ranging from a single piece to a few thousand pieces. It’s an ideal choice for the project's early stage. One of the best ways for moving from the concept stage through making low-volume prototyping is to verify design and research.

Many manufacturers don’t want to do low-volume production, regarded as a specialized service. because the whole system of their operation and supply chains are optimized for large volume production volumes that leverage economies of scale. Generally speaking, this seems to be the best way to ensure the lowest unit price. However, it can not suitable for low volume, but request a higher MOQ(Minimum Order Quantity) to proceed. and also mold tooling cost is expected to be high.

But for product developers, what they need is not high volume production for now, as the market may not accept it for the time being, and potential to be explored in the meanwhile, but the low volume would be an ideal option to move ideas and projects, from one part to one thousand? That’s where Step Rapid can help.

Low volume manufacturing strategies center on creating small batches of products cost-effectively. They require rethinking the traditional focus on rapid production for the mass market and targeting processes that maintain efficiency and quality for every product. Low volume manufacturing strategies aren’t for everyone, but in some industries—like medical device creation—they are indispensable.

Of course, not all low volume manufacturing processes are the same. They need cultivation based on what’s best for the customer’s product and their target market. That’s why anyone considering a low volume approach should look at some of the more popular options to choose the best path to market.

Sometimes our clients have questioned the quality of low-volume manufacturing. Which can not make compromise quality or precision like batch production manufacturing. we apply the same process including design, material, processing approach, process control, and quality control.

So how do we proceed?  We’re experts in high-mix.  Low Volume manufacturing may appear to be a chaotic process. As typically, many different products are created together in small batches. from one part to a million. That means we have a robust supply chain of raw materials so you won’t be burdened with minimum order volume restrictions.

Adaptive Lean Low-Volume Manufacturing, Lean principles don’t seem designed for low-volume manufacturing. At first glance, some useful aspects are applicable. One such element is waste reduction. Even in low volume, it’s good to create a process that will allow the building of a single product in as few steps as possible.

Efficiency in low volume manufacturing refers to the ability to produce small quantities of products efficiently and cost-effectively. In the future, there are a few trends that are likely to shape the future of low volume manufacturing.

Low-volume manufacturing refers to the production of small quantities of products, typically less than 10,000 units per year. This type of manufacturing is often used to produce prototypes, test new designs, or produce small batches of customized products.
