Overview of Core Price Range
The prices of ceramic / powder metallurgy high-temperature formed graphite molds are mainly influenced by five factors: material grade, specification size, precision requirements, processing complexity, and brand origin. The overall range is as follows:
| Mold type | Price range (RMB) | Valuation method | Applicable scenarios |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard General Type | 300 - 1,500 yuan / piece | Per-piece pricing | Simple shapes, mass-produced ceramic / powder metallurgy parts |
| Precision customized type | 1,500 - 8,000 yuan / piece | By piece / by weight | Complex non-standard, high-precision requirements for hot pressing / sintering molds |
| High-end imported type | 8,000 - 50,000 yuan / piece | Calculated by weight / by set | Ultra-high purity, extreme conditions, military / semiconductor-level applications |
| Material cost benchmark | 85 - 2,600 yuan / kilogram | Based on weight | Prices of different grades of graphite raw materials (domestic / imported) |
Specification size and processing complexity premium
Small and simple molds (such as crucibles and plates smaller than φ50mm): 300 - 800 yuan / piece, processing fee accounts for approximately 30%
Medium-sized standard molds (such as hot-pressed molds with dimensions of 100×100×50mm): 800 - 2,500 yuan / piece, processing fee accounts for approximately 40 - 50%
Large and complex molds (such as those larger than 300mm with deep cavities / thin walls / multi-pore structures): 2,500 - 8,000 yuan / piece, processing fee can reach 60 - 70%
Customized special-shaped molds (such as non-standard cavities and special positioning structures): an additional 10 - 30% design and development fee is required
Brand and Origin Differences
Domestic ordinary brands: Prices are 10-20% lower than the benchmark, suitable for general industrial applications
Domestic well-known brands (such as Jin Cheng Graphite, Xin Ruida): Prices are the same as the benchmark, with stable and reliable quality
Imported brands (such as France Meissonier, USA POCO, Japan Carbon): Prices are 2-5 times that of domestic products, suitable for high-end applications
Typical application scenarios and reference prices:
Ceramic cutting tool forming molds: 500 - 1,800 yuan / piece, mostly medium-sized, with high precision requirements
Powder metallurgy gear molds: 800 - 2,500 yuan / set, including upper and lower molds, consider the demolding structure
Electronic ceramic substrate molds: 1,200 - 3,500 yuan / piece, ultra-precision grade, ultra-fine particle graphite material
Hard alloy cutting head hot pressing molds: 1,500 - 4,000 yuan / piece, resistant to high temperature and high pressure, high-density graphite
New energy ceramic accessory molds: 1,000 - 3,000 yuan / piece, compatible with atmosphere furnaces, high corrosion resistance requirements
Purchase suggestions:
Select based on requirements: For ordinary applications, choose domestic high-density isostatic graphite (99.95%), the cost performance is the highest
Batch purchase: For more than 10 pieces, enjoy a 10 - 15% discount, and discuss more favorable prices for long-term cooperation
Customization: Provide detailed drawings to reduce design costs and avoid rework due to communication errors
Cost control: The mold can last for 500 - 800 furnace cycles, consider the overall cost performance rather than just the unit price
Prices will be adjusted due to factors such as changes in raw material markets and upgrading of processing techniques. It is recommended to inquire and compare prices from multiple suppliers before purchasing.
