Many customers will have all kinds of confusion and questions when customizing badges or other metal crafts; they don’t know where to start, and there are no professionals around to consult, or when considering the problem, there will always be something incomplete, which not only increases the workload in the later stage, but also wastes time and affects efficiency! The following is a summary of the questions most customers ask, see if there is anything that can help you solve your doubts.

1. What format do you need to provide for the design drawings?
For customized drawings, the design drawings need to provide source files such as AI/CDR/PDF. If there is no original design, high-resolution pictures can be provided. If you don’t provide a hand-drawn draft, we can also make it.
2. How much does badge customization usually cost?
The customization fee for metal crafts such as badges, medals, key chains, etc. generally includes mold fee + unit price * quantity, and the costs of printing process or knife mold, packaging box, etc. are calculated separately. The cost is related to factors such as size, material, and process. Of course, the larger the quantity, the lower the unit price!
3. How much is the mold fee for badge customization?
Customization of metal crafts such as badges, medals, and medals generally requires mold making. The mold fee is determined by the difficulty of the design drawing, including specifications, thickness, material, process, color, etc. For example, is it single-sided or double-sided, 2D or 3D, what material to choose, etc.
4. Which process is generally better?
Paint and imitation enamel processes are more commonly used. Imitation enamel will be smoother and brighter. Printing can be done with a gradient effect. Real enamel can be guaranteed to remain unchanged for a hundred years. It can also be combined with multiple processes. You can choose the appropriate process according to the drawings and budget.
5. How long does it take to make a custom badge sample?
How long does it take to make a sample for custom metal crafts? Proofing is generally 5-7 days, depending on the complexity of the product design.
