What to include for a faster answer

A complete RFQ does not need to be polished, but it should give reviewers enough context to choose the right process path. Include the 3D model, drawing, material preference, target volume, required finish, inspection evidence, deadline, and any end-customer documentation requirements. If you are unsure whether injection molding, additive manufacturing, or tooling support fits best, describe the part function and current development stage. Xometry can help turn that early information into a practical next step.

• Upload-ready CAD and drawing files
• Annual volume or pilot lot estimate
• Critical features and cosmetic surfaces
• Quality documents required by your customer

For injection molding projects, attach resin preferences, expected annual usage, target cavity plan if known, cosmetic surfaces, and any shutoff or insert details that could affect tooling. For additive manufacturing, include the prototype purpose, load conditions, preferred print process if already selected, and post-processing expectations. For tooling, machinery, or fixture work, describe the production environment, mating equipment, wear surfaces, operator access, and inspection points. These details help the response team ask sharper questions and route your request to suppliers with the right capacity instead of treating every file like a generic part.

If your team is still comparing routes, say so directly. Xometry can review whether a printed prototype, machined pilot lot, bridge mold, or production injection molding path is the better next step for the schedule and evidence you need, with clear next actions for engineering, purchasing, and quality teams.
