CNC machining is a popular manufacturing method used to produce high-precision parts and components. When it comes to pricing CNC machined products, there are several factors to consider. In this article, we'll take a closer look at the key elements that impact CNC machining costs and how to accurately quote your CNC machined products.Material CostThe material cost is one of the most significant factors to consider when pricing CNC machined products. The cost of materials varies depending on the type, quantity, and quality of the material used. Some materials are more expensive than others, and the complexity of the product design can also impact the material cost.Machining TimeThe machining time is another critical factor to consider when pricing CNC machined products. The time required to machine a part depends on the complexity of the design, the material used, and the precision required. The longer the machining time, the higher the cost of production will be.Labor CostLabor costs are also a significant factor in pricing CNC machined products. The cost of labor varies depending on the skill level and experience of the machinist, the complexity of the design, and the time required to complete the job. It's essential to factor in labor costs when quoting your CNC machined products.Tooling and Setup CostsThe cost of tooling and setup is another factor to consider when pricing CNC machined products. Tooling refers to the cutting tools used to machine the part, while setup costs refer to the preparation required before machining can begin. The more complex the design, the higher the tooling and setup costs will be.QuantityThe quantity of parts required can also impact the pricing of CNC machined products. Generally, the more parts you order, the lower the per-unit cost will be. This is because the tooling and setup costs can be spread out over a larger number of parts.ConclusionPricing CNC machined products can be a complex process, but by considering the factors outlined in this article, you can ensure that your quotes are accurate and competitive. Remember to factor in material costs, machining time, labor costs, tooling and setup costs, and quantity when quoting your CNC machined products.

Once need a prototype for your new product and then you upload your 3D /CAD model to our website, the software calculates the price to produce your design in various materials and then generates an “as-milled view” of your part. An interactive quote is provided that allows you to evaluate the choice of different materials and different quantities, as well as a 3D view of how your machined part will compare to your original model with any differences highlighted. See a TWQuote preview. Thank you for the opportunity to quote your parts. We look forward to working with you on this project. If you have any questions, please contact us at towell@sztuowei.com  

The best way to find out is to submit a 3D CAD model and get a TW Quote interactive quote. Because we use proprietary software and automated fixturing processes, there are no up front non-recurring engineering (NRE) costs. This makes purchasing quantities as low as 1 to 200 parts cost effective. Prices compared to 3D printing are comparable to somewhat higher, but machining offers improved material properties and surfaces. In Tuowei, our quotation process is standardized. Our project team will give you the quotation immediately after we get the detailed information of customers' requirements. In other words, we can offer you a fast, professional and preferential price. Our prices will be based on the raw material/machining time/ surface finish/and structure/size and so on.  Please look at the sample we did for your reference.  Take this robot for example, the value of this robot is about USD 3000 /one sets and this surface finish is painting normal black color and then paint UV in outside surface.This is made by PMMA and ABS material, it is very strong and good ability material. It is suitable for medical and robot’s product. If you have any needs for this types products, please feel free to contact us and also can contact us though our website at TUOWEI. Looking forward to our cooperation!

Every prototype parts manufacturing company has its most advantage of rapid prototyping services and technologies. It is important that you should choose the most suitable companies for your rapid prototyping project. Here we will introduce Tuowei rapid prototyping services for your reference.The rapid prototyping services are included in Tuowei1.CNC Machining ServiceAs the most traditional way of rapid prototyping, CNC machining is still used for many plastic/metal products. CNC (3 axis, 4 axis, 5 axis) can meet the design verification demands of customers. It has high precision, strong structure, and wide material. Its cost is middle in the rapid manufacturing process.2.3D Printing Service3D printing is the newest and most potential technology for rapid prototyping.It brings a revolution to the machining industry. Until now, Mostly used technology is SLA and SLS. Besides, there are FDM and others.3. PU Vacuum Casting ServiceThis is used for plastic parts from quantity 10 to quantity 500 normally(less than 1K）. The Master is first used and then Urethane is into the silicon mold, the final product comes out. Silicon mold can be often used to produce 10–15 products.4.Sheet Metal ServiceIt is a way of metal machining. The final product is often like a thick board.5. Rapid Tooling ServiceWhen the quantity of product mass production is less than 3000, it will cost a lot if you do a normal mold( more than 10K mold life). Rapid Tooling is a very good choice. Rapid Tool’s  mold life is less than 5K and has a good capacity in mold life and cost6. Injection Molding ServiceWhen your product requirement is more than 5K, Injection Molding should be a good choice. When you finish mold design, it can produce a product for you to sell on the market.Besides rapid tooling and injection mold, die casting,2K shoot, Insert mold, etc molding technology also be used for mass production.If you still have rapid prototyping or low volume production inquiry, feel free to discuss with me on email: sales5@sztuowei.com
