Injection Molding Instant Quote Platform for Real Manufacturing Decisions
Upload CAD to get an injection molding instant quote with tooling cost, piece price, and DFM context in one customer portal. Move from estimate to engineering review without restarting the thread in email.
QUOTE FLOW | Netproto
Upload CAD for an injection mold tooling and piece-price quote
Use the NetProto customer portal to move from STEP or STP upload to an injection molding instant quote, engineering confirmation, and order placement without losing project context.
Upload STP/STEP File
Upload STEP or STP CAD plus material, quantity, finish, and production notes so the injection mold tooling quote starts from complete inputs.
System Generates Automatic Quote
The platform returns an injection molding instant quote with tooling cost, piece price, lead time, and shipping options tied to your geometry.
Submit for Confirmation to get confirmed Quote
Submit for engineering confirmation so DFM and pricing assumptions are checked before you approve tooling.

Frequently Asked Questions About Instant Quotes
How does the injection molding instant quote work?
You upload CAD, enter material intent, quantities, and finish notes, then receive an online estimate for tooling and molded parts. NetProto reviews manufacturability and quote assumptions before tooling is released on scoped programs.
What CAD files can I upload for an instant quote?
Start with a 3D model in STEP or STP format. Add 2D drawings or revision notes when tolerances, inserts, or color callouts matter. Incomplete inputs are a common reason estimates change after review.
Does the instant quote include tooling and piece price?
Yes. The estimate separates injection mold tooling from piece price so teams can compare program fit before approving tool build.
How does DFM review relate to the instant quote?
The instant quote surfaces early manufacturability flags from your geometry and stated requirements. Engineering confirms assumptions before tooling kickoff. See /design-for-manufacturing for how DFM feeds the same workflow.
Is there a minimum order quantity for instant quotes?
NetProto does not enforce a hard minimum order quantity on scoped programs. Piece price still depends on the quantities you enter in the quote.
How accurate is the online injection molding quote?
Accuracy improves when CAD, material intent, quantities, and tolerance bands are complete before you submit. Engineering confirmation aligns the final quote with manufacturability review, not the first click alone.
