By submitting CAD files or drawings, you confirm that you have the legal right to share these materials. Submitted files may be reviewed internally or with qualified manufacturing partners for quotation and manufacturability evaluation.

What Happens Next?

After your request is submitted, the Night Owl Manufacturing team will review your project and follow up with next steps.

Step 1: Engineering Review

Our team evaluates part geometry, materials, and manufacturability.

Step 2: Tooling Strategy Evaluation

We determine tooling requirements and manufacturing approach based on your expected production volume.

Step 3: Quotation

You receive a detailed injection molding quote outlining tooling strategy, estimated production costs, and program considerations.

Quoting & Getting Started

What do I need to submit to get a quote?
A 3D CAD file (STEP or IGES preferred) and a 2D drawing if you have one. The drawing does not need to be complete, but the more defined your tolerances, materials, finish and quality are upfront, the more accurate the quote will be. Quotes built on incomplete information carry assumptions that often change once program details are finalized.
Most quotes take 2-3 business days. Complex parts with side actions, insert molding, overmolding or unusual geometry may take longer. If your timeline is tight, include that information when you submit your request. We will let you know honestly whether we can meet it.
No. Night Owl Manufacturing supports programs across multiple production stages: 
  • Prototype quantities: 25-100 parts
  • Bridge production: 100-999 parts
  • Production programs: 1000+ parts
The economics change at each volume level, and we will help determine what makes the most sense for your program.
Yes, with the understanding that the quote will include tolerances and assumptions that may chance once a drawing is provided. For prototype programs where drawings do not exist yet, we will clearly note what assumptions were made so there are no surprises when the program moves forward.
STEP (.stp, .step) is preferred for 3D geometry. IGES, Parasolid, and SOLIDWORKS native files are also accepted. For 2D drawings, PDF is acceptable. DXF and DWG are accepted but not preferred for complex parts.

General commercial tolerances are ± 0.25 mm on dimensions up to 25 mm, scaling with part size. Fine tolerances down to ± 0.10 mm on small features are achievable with validated tooling and process controls. Tolerances are geometry and material dependent — see our Tolerances & Surface Finish reference for detail. If you have a critical tolerance, call it out on the drawing and we will confirm feasibility during DFM review.

Yes. First article inspection with dimensional reporting is available on all programs. For prototype programs it is optional. For bridge and production programs transitioning to full release, we recommend it. If your program has a formal FAI requirement, specify it at the quote stage.

Process parameters are documented and locked at first article approval. Production runs against those parameters. If process adjustments are required — due to material lot variation, tooling wear, or environmental changes — changes are documented before implementation. We do not quietly adjust process parameters to hit cycle time targets.

We sort, rework where possible, and replace non-conforming parts. If the root cause is tooling-related, we address the tool before running additional production. If the root cause is a design issue, we document it and bring it to the customer before proceeding. We do not ship parts we know are out of spec.
