Hi all, i'm new here.
I just graduated from college, where i learn some Powershape and PowerCAM and took several industrial classes about production processes.
I already set a goal, (because it's better to have one).
It's to become a cellphone case manufacturer, but to be honest i almost have no idea how to get to there...
So could anyone with experience in this business give me a general idea and advices?
I have tried importing and selling some cases from china to get a better look on how this business work.. And i think it's got a good prospect in my country.. Cellphone users are growing rapidly, and so is the accessories sales..
Some of my questions :
1. Why is Delcam not as popular as Solidwork or other CAD/CAM software? It's the one that i know so i prefer using it..
2. How or where do you guys think should i start this business? Should i work as employee first?
3. Could anyone suggest which cnc machines are used in this business? Especially for creating the molding?
4. What do you guys think about the pirating problem? I'm concerned about competition because alot of famous casings are being "reverse-engineered" by chinese companies
5. Anything else i should know? to survive and be successful in this business?
Thanks
