Negotiation with suppliers will fail to get the best price if your purchasing staff does not know the true prime costs. Or your enterprise needs to calculate sales prices to send offers to your existing and potential customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3337\">Only if you know your true internal costs, do you know your bottom line for negotiations of your sales staff with customers to avoid losses. Due to our comprehensive experience in sales, purchasing, logistics, and general management, our company can help you find the true cost and support you in negotiations with customers and suppliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3338\">Because of the lack of manpower and knowledge along with other reasons, either you need our service to find the true costs or we will calculate them for you. Or we train your staff to do the work by yourself. Additionally, we can consult you in preparation and negotiation with your international clients and vendors. Our GTEC professionals speak Chinese, English, and German.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ember3339\"><strong>2. Reporting<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3340\">Do you as our customer like to have a report to show the results of our cost calculations? Creating a calculation helps customers understand the interconnected relationships between cost parameters that result in the part price. Analyses are required to effectively achieve cost optimization objectives. From the broad range of reports available, we offer a \u201cResult Report,\u201d which is a summary of all of the cost parameters and is an excellent basis for negotiations and similar tasks. Currencies: ECOCUT\u2122 supports the major currencies of the world. Different currency modes can be selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ember3341\"><strong>3. Manufacturing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3342\">The cycle time is usually a very sensitive operation. This is why various cycle time calculators can calculate these values themselves based on physical dimensions. The geometric properties of cast and injection molding parts enable us to calculate the machine dimensions (clamping force). The cycle time is then influenced considerably by the solidification time. The cycle time calculators query all of the dimensions that are relevant to and later indicate the cycle time. Machined parts (turning\/milling parts) require the most extensive knowledge. Here, they refer to the work sequences that are listed step by step and analyzed with processing times due to our experience and knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3343\">We are currently using the following cycle time calculators for our cost calculations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3344\">\u2022 Die casting<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3345\">\u2022 Plastic injection molding<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3346\">\u2022 Lathing\/turning<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3347\">\u2022 Milling<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3348\">\u2022 Assembly<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3349\">\u2022 Stamping, deep drawing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3350\">The knowledge domain provides access via the explorer to manufacturing steps that have already been calculated and have yielded robust results and allows them to copy these steps. In the process, we can copy entire manufacturing steps and their components and embed them into the calculation to be created. In the knowledge domain, standardized manufacturing processes are predefined by the users and created as independent modules. The more consistently a knowledge domain is constructed and maintained by us, the faster calculations can be created in the future: and the higher the qualitative value of those calculations. External (supplier) and internal manufacturing process know-how is stored in the ECOCUT\u2122 knowledge domain. If we switch to the \u201cManufacturing Details\u201d window, ECOCUT\u2122 queries all of the cost-related components within one single manufacturing step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3351\">\u2022 Output quantity<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3352\">\u2022 Machine hourly rate<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3353\">\u2022 Setup costs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3354\">\u2022 Direct labor costs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3355\">\u2022 Tool costs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3356\">\u2022 Residual manufacturing overhead cost surcharge<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ember3358\"><strong>4. Cost Calculations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3359\">How were our calculations performed? The part, assembly, and even the system prices are derived from the three cost pools:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3360\">A. Material costs: raw material, subparts, consumables, material overhead costs (MOC). We offer a selection of specific material cost calculators that address the unique technical specifications of the various manufacturing processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3361\">B. Manufacturing costs: production system, setup costs, direct labor, tools, residual manufacturing overhead costs (RMOC). The \u201cManufacturing\u201d spreadsheet initiates all of the manufacturing steps and displays them graphically in an arrow diagram. At the same time, this information is also listed in tabular form directly below the graphical representation and presented with three different \u201cmanufacturing arrows\u201d (Fig. 1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3362\">C. Overheads: overheads on production costs, profit, payment terms, and delivery terms. (Fig. 2).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-18x10.png 18w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-938x528.png 938w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3-1130x636.png 1130w, https:\/\/gtec.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/image-3.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Overhead of production costs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"ember3364\"><strong>Sources:<\/strong> Perfect ProCalc, a software and trademark of Perfect Costing Solutions GmbH, which was sold to Siemens in 2012 and named Product Costing.
