Feature
Cost with numbers, not gut feeling.
Between "customer inquires" and "quote is out" a week often passes — because mold prices crawl through three time zones by email and the costing lives in the umpteenth spreadsheet. InjectOS cuts that to hours, and tells you after the run whether the margin held.
Article costing with injection-molding DNA.
Cavities, cycle time, shot weight, material mix with masterbatch and regrind share, machine hour rate with valid-from date, overhead, margin, up to five volume prices. Revisions let you see what you calculated when, under which assumption.
Mold RFQs without email ping-pong.
One RFQ, several mold makers, auto-generated request PDFs — in Chinese if needed. Answers land in a comparison matrix: price, lead time, warranty, steel grade. Decision documented, done.
Quotes with built-in discipline.
Hierarchical items (article + mold), mandatory approval by the manager, automatic follow-up after five days. No quote quietly fizzles out anymore.
Pipeline and projects through to series.
From lead through opportunity to a project with mandatory phases: DFM, design, T1 through Tn, initial sampling, series. Loss reasons are captured — you learn from every "no".
Post-calculation as standard.
On the phase change into series, InjectOS compares plan and actual: cycle time, material, scrap. The next quote is better than the last.
Q&A
Frequently asked questions
Where do the hour rates come from?
You maintain machine hour rates with a validity period — InjectOS calculates with them.
Does the RFQ also work with German mold makers?
Yes — partner database with ratings, PDFs in German, English and Chinese.
Is this a full CRM?
For injection-molding sales, yes: leads, scoring, pipeline, activities, calendar. No bloated Salesforce.
