A:
Q: What specific AQL defect tolerance level do you operate at for bulk shipments of these laser engraved metal pens?
A: While specific AQL levels are not detailed in our standard documentation, we apply multi-stage QC with 100% visual inspection after laser engraving and writing performance testing. For critical defects affecting pen function, engraving quality, or writing performance, we maintain tight tolerance. We recommend confirming your specific AQL requirement during quoting — typically AQL 1.5 for critical defects and AQL 2.5 for minor defects in writing instruments — and we can implement the agreed standard. Package size: 20x10x10cm with 0.2kg weight.
Q: What is the realistic production lead time from artwork approval to ready-to-ship for 50 and 200 units?
A: For orders up to 50 pieces, the realistic production timeline is 7 days from artwork approval. Orders exceeding 50 pieces require negotiation for extended timelines. The MOQ is flexible with custom logo from 200 pieces at +$0.30/piece. Custom design takes 3 days with custom samples in 7 days. Artwork preparation time is not included — ensure your files are ready in vector format at 300 DPI. The 140mm x 10mm metal construction with 1.0mm writing width requires precise manufacturing.
Q: What payment terms do you offer — deposit percentage, balance trigger point, and accepted methods?
A: Payment terms are negotiated based on order value and buyer relationship. Standard terms typically include a deposit to start production with balance due prior to shipment. Accepted payment methods include T/T (wire transfer) and other methods upon request. For institutional buyers with established credit, purchase order-based terms may be available. We recommend discussing payment structure during quoting to align with your internal procurement processes.
Q: Do you provide pre-shipment inspection reports with third-party QC sign-off, and what is the cost structure?
A: Pre-shipment inspection is available upon request. Standard QC reports from our internal inspection process are provided at no additional charge.
