CNC Machining Price: Factors, Calculation and Cost-Saving Strategies
As a professional CNC machining service provider, AOOM Technology understands that pricing is a top concern for procurement managers and engineers. This article provides transparent insights into how CNC machining costs are determined and how to optimize your budget without compromising quality.
Key Factors Affecting CNC Machining Prices
1. Material Costs: Aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium have significantly different price points
2. Part Complexity: Intricate geometries require more machining time and specialized tooling
3. Production Volume: Higher quantities typically reduce per-unit costs through economies of scale
4. Tolerance Requirements: Tight tolerances (±.001") demand precision equipment and additional QC steps
5. Surface Finishing: Secondary processes like anodizing or polishing add to the total cost
