The cost of CNC machining parts is mainly composed of processing time, processing equipment, material costs, surface treatment methods, etc. How to control the cost is analyzed and summarized below:

1. How to reduce project start-up costs

Certain expenses will be incurred when the project is launched. These expenses are related to the preparation of CAD files and process planning, which are of great significance for small batch production. This cost is fixed, and there are opportunities to reduce the unit price by taking advantage of "economies of scale", such as evaluating the price of the MOQ and controlling expenses at the beginning of the project.

2. What is the impact of processing time on costs?

The longer it takes to machine a part, the more expensive it will be. Processing time is often the main cost driver. Carry out DFM evaluation when the project is imported, customize tools and optimize tool paths according to the number of parts. This can increase efficiency by more than 20%. We have verified many cases that prove that the efficiency of programs compiled by different engineers varies greatly, so DFM is a team effort Participation is the necessary condition to keep the processing time at a reasonable value and control the processing costs.

3. The impact of CNC machining parts processing and manufacturing equipment on

The machinery required to create the part can significantly affect the cost. Can a CNC machining center use one multi-axis machine to complete the part, or does it require multiple machines? How many different machines are needed and what size machines are needed for the operation? Modern machining and manufacturing equipment is very expensive and varies depending on the machine type, brand, quality, size and capabilities. Are not the same. Each of these factors must be considered in the accurate cost determination of a part or product.

4. How to control the cost of CNC machining materials

The cost of bulk materials and the ease of processing of the materials greatly affect the overall cost of CNC machining. Optimizing the design while taking into account certain material considerations can significantly reduce price. Some materials are much slower to process than others, even with the advancements in modern tooling and machine technology. Some materials can wear out the expensive consumable cutting tools used more quickly, and this can vary from one tool making hundreds or even thousands of parts to consuming multiple tools for a single part. If you ask your store to handle potentially hazardous materials that require additional safety precautions, the overall cost can increase significantly. Therefore, the material selection for your component can be a huge cost impact factor even before the part is designed.
