艺术铸造工作室的报价与接单流程
标签：工作室经营, 报价, 接单流程, 定金, 壁厚
艺术铸造报价分四块：制模费（硅胶模按展开面积计）、铸造费（铸件净重×铜价×2.2–2.8 系数，含浇道损耗与工时）、精整费（切磨、补焊、修整按工时）、着色费（按表面复杂度）。50 cm 高的中小雕塑常见交期 8–12 周，定金 50%。报价单必须注明壁厚（雕塑 4–6 mm）、预估重量（蜡重×10 估算铜重）与修改次数上限，避免反复修蜡导致亏损。
Art-foundry quotes split into four blocks: mold-making (silicone priced by developed area), casting (net weight × copper price × 2.2–2.8, covering sprue loss and labor), finishing (cut-off, welding, chasing by the hour), and patina (by surface complexity). A 50 cm sculpture typically takes 8–12 weeks with a 50% deposit. Quotes must state wall thickness (4–6 mm for sculpture), estimated weight (wax × 10 gives bronze weight), and a cap on wax-chasing revisions — open-ended revisions are where foundries lose money. ---
