FAQ's

1. How much do CNC machining materials cost?

The cost of CNC machining materials is influenced by the selected material, with each material

carrying its own price tag based on unique physical properties. The variety of materials available

for CNC machining contributes to the diverse cost landscape.

For metal parts production, Aluminum 6061 emerges as the most cost-effective option.

If cost efficiency is paramount, ABS is the most economical choice. The ease of machining plays

a significant role in cost dynamics, exemplified by stainless steel. Its greater hardness relative to

aluminum increases machining complexity, resulting in a higher overall cost.

2. Tolerance Specifications for Machined Parts

Our tolerances for machined parts are outlined below:

Local tolerances of +.005”/- .005” are applied across most geometries in metals, while plastics

have a tolerance variation of +/- 0.010". Tolerance specifications may vary for large parts,

especially concerning flatness after heat treatment.

For CNC parts with an "As Milled" finish, a minimum surface finish of 125 is required.

Fabricated parts adhere to a dimensional tolerance of 0.010” and an angular tolerance of 1°.

Tapped holes not explicitly identified as features on the quoted CAD model may be machined to

the diameters specified in that model.

Surface treatments (e.g., anodize, bead blast, iridite, powder coat, etc.) will not be applied unless

specifically paid for and acknowledged.

3. How long does delivery time and quotation take?

The delivery time for parts is determined by their complexity:

Low-complexity parts: 2-3 days
Moderate-complexity parts: 2-5 days
High-complexity parts: 5-15 days
Quoting time varies based on design complexity:

Simple designs: 1 business day or faster
Moderate to complex designs: 3+ business days
