The cost of CNC machining is any given hourly rate, about 60~80/hour RMB on average. The cost of CNC machine parts is the total cost of raw materials, plus the cost of any special fixturing, plus the labour hours taken to machine each part.
It takes many years of experience to be able to accurately quote CNC machine parts. There are many factors that need to be considered, each with the ability to increase or reduce the cost of the machining service.
WHAT MAJOR FACTORS INFLUENCE THE PRICE?
The cost of CNC machined parts is really just the sum of the time it takes to manufacture them, multiplied by an hour rate. Having a deeper understanding of all processes that go into manufacture, will result in more accurate pricing.
These processes include programming, setting up machine tools, de-burring and inspection.
As a customer, its beneficial to understand what other factors can influence the price you pay, beyond the quality control measures already mentioned. As listed below, many of these factors are within your control:
-ISO 9001 Accreditation – Is your supplier really committed to their promises of quality?
-Batch sizes – Do you want 1-off or 1,000-off?
-Outsourced operations – Do you want parts supplied anodised, or will you source it yourself?
-Material Selection – Aluminium can be machined at a much lower costs than steel.
-Geometry – Dimensions, shape, and part complexity can increase machining cycles.
-Lead time – How urgently do you need the components?
-Tolerances – Tighter tolerances add higher risk and require additional inspection time.
-Fixturing – Does your component have a complex profile, that requires bespoke work-holiding solutions to hold it during machining operations?
