Smiles from Detroit. I would look to press those parts, since most contact surfaces are potentially convex and variant-depth parts appear superfluous to requirements. With a shared punch and die you could pull the nest off a laser, press them all in parallel, and break them after the parallel press-forming. Should be cheaper than injection because the cycles can be faster, the material can be stronger, there's only one die, and the unload will be easier? |

This sort of thing is probably about $40,000 for the first part, $0.05 for each additional part. Designing and making the custom dies is expensive. Banging out the parts is cheap. Mass production works.
