Compared to the traditional method, CNC machining provides a number of economical and production advantages for your custom made parts. For example, manual lathing is a very hands-on process where a skilled technician is needed in order to make modifications for every machine, while with CNC machining, one technician can operate several machines.

What is more, there are no fixed costs universally applied to every single project and CNC cut. There are several aspects of CNC pricing you need to think about such as the equipment that is being used and the type of CNC machine.

You also need to think about:

Machine set-up time
Machining time
Material
Design and shape
Batch size
Labor costs
Metal finishing process
