You need to charge enought to cover your travel expenses and time. There are two ways you can do it.

One is to charge a lump sum and include it in the price of the job, either as part of the job or as a separate line item.

The other is to charge a lump sum and bill it separate from your job invoice (more bookkeeping that it’s worth).

You don’t say how big an area you serve, or how big your jobs are. If your jobs are small enough to be carried in a pick up, I would think that $ 1.50 per mile, up to 25 miles one way, with a minimu charge of $ 50.00 would be in line. For instance, if your pick up is 25 miles, one way, from your shop – 25 miles x 2 x $ 1.50 = $ 75.00. If the milage is such that it yields less that $ 50.00, then charge the minimum.

The regular pick up and delivery services set their rates according to zones that are generally 5 miles in diameter.
Zone A extends 5 miles from the center of operations, Zone B is from 5 to 10 miles, and so on.

Hope this helps.

Practical Guide To Injection Blow Molding (Plastics Engineering)

Injection blow molding is one of the main processes used in the blow molding industry. And although you may find information on this topic in general books on blow molding, the coverage is skimpy and lacking in details. None of them supply the sharply focused, essential information you will find in Samuel Belcher’s Practical Guide to Injection Blow Molding. Taking a straightforward approach, the book explores the entire industry from conception, design, costing, tooling, and machinery, to trou

RPM is all about turning ideas into reality. We’ve done it for ourselves and we can do it for you. Here’s how we started. In 1986 there were only two of us: qualified toolmakers Peter Smith and Mark Vincent. We established RPM in a humble 1000 sq. ft factory with the barest essentials in machinery. From that small beginning, we’ve turned RPM into one of New Zealand’s largest engineering operations. We’re now headquartered in purpose-built 30000 sq ft premises on Auckland’s North Shore and employ over 55 staff creating tools and dies to make everything from stadium seating to dishwasher components. How did we turn a tiny business – little more than an idea – into a tool and die powerhouse? It comes down to experience, expertise and a commitment to reinvestment. Then of course there’s the most important factor of all – the people we work with. Our success depends on long-term, loyal relationships with international and local customers and suppliers. Ask any of them and you’ll find those relationships sustained by our uncompromising commitment to excellent delivery times and service standards. As an organization, we’re serious about quality. That’s why we’re ISO 9000:2008 certified. At RPM we pride ourselves on providing a concept-to-completion service. Our capabilities enable us to provide a total service, or any individual job in the process.

Injection Mold Tooling

Question by cupcake: Combination or Permutation Question?
Plastic parts produced by an injection-molding operation are checked for conformance to specifications. Each tool contains 12 cavities in which parts are produced, and these parts fall into a conveyor when the press opens. An inspector chooses 3 parts from among the 12 at random. Two cavities are affected by a temperature malfunction that results in parts that don’t conform to specifications.

a) what is the probability that the inspector finds exactly one nonconforming part?
b) what is the probability that the inspector finds at least one nonconforming part?

You don’t have to do the second part if you don’t want to. I can do it if someone shows me how to do part (a).
Thanks for any help

Best answer:

Answer by holdm
there are 12C3 = 220 ways for the inspector to pick 3 parts to check.
When exactly one of these three is bad: there are 2 ways to pick the bad part and 10C2 = 45 ways to pick good parts. 2*45/220 = 9/22

b) the probability that the inspector checks only good parts is 10C3/12C3 = 120/220 = 6/11
therefore the probability that he finds at least one bad is 1 – 6/11 = 5/11
