Transparent Manufacturing Pricing
Understand what drives cost for CNC machining, 3D printing, and sheet metal, then request pricing based on the process, material, finish, and inspection scope.
How Pricing Works
Upload Your CAD
STEP, IGES, or 3D PDF. Add your specs — material, quantity, finish, lead time.
Quote Review
We check geometry, process assumptions, material, finish, and inspection scope before returning pricing.
Engineer-Reviewed Quote
Clear pricing with DFM feedback, process notes, and inspection assumptions typically within one business day.
What Drives Your Cost?
Select a process to see how cost breaks down — and how to optimize it.
CNC Machining
3-Axis, 5-Axis, Turning, Swiss-Type
Cost Breakdown
CAM programming, workholding design, tool selection
Raw stock cost, buy-to-fly ratio, alloy grade
Cycle time, tool changes, number of setups
Tighter tolerances and finer finishes add passes
Cost Reduction Tips
- Standard tolerances (±0.005 in. / ±0.127 mm) cost significantly less than tight tolerances (±0.001 in. / ±0.025 mm)
- Reduce setup count by designing features accessible from fewer orientations
- Choose 6061-T6 or 303 SS for short lead times — always in stock
