Having trouble understanding my overseas supplier
Hello All,
i am in the process of getting a product designed over seas. My product is a foam roller, which is basically pvc pipe with foam surrounding the outside. I just received an email from my supplier that I do not understand. It seems they are having trouble with the mould for the design of the foam.
could someone make sense of this email for me?
Dear:
I am just ready to send you email .
The mould hasn't be made. Let me explain to you. We usually make mould with CNC machine, but your foam roller consist of a hex pattern throughout the center. You know the milling cutter is straight , so it can't mill inward. So we are discussing if we can casting the mould , but another problem appear, the mould has two parts, if we cast the mould by two times , maybe joint line has some tolerance, the hex in the middle maybe has 1mm tolerance, if it is ok for you?
I don't know if you can undrstand me very well, if not , pls let me know.
best regards
alyssa
