Can you produce according to the samples?
Yes. We can produce gears and shafts based on physical samples. For best accuracy, sample-based projects usually require measurement + confirmation before cutting tooling, so the first-sample timeline may be longer than drawing-based projects.
When sample-based production works best
Sample-only is a good fit when you’re replacing an existing part or you don’t have drawings. It’s especially effective if you can provide mating-part information so we can confirm fits and functional targets.
What affects cost and lead time
1. Sample condition (wear/damage can distort geometry)
2. Measurement depth (basic dimensions vs full gear metrology)
3. Need for multiple samples (to filter out wear influence)
4. Accuracy/inspection requirements (profile/lead/pitch reports, etc.)
Steps
1. Sample intake + application review
2. Measurement + manufacturing definition (drawing/CAD)
3. Quote + first sample plan
4. Sample inspection + your confirmation
5. Bulk production after approval
Quick table
| What you provide | What we do | Typical impact |
| 1 sample only | Measure + rebuild definition | Higher uncertainty |
2–3 samples | Cross-check geometry | Lower risk |
Sample + mating info | Fit/function review | Faster confirmation |
