How to calculate the price of CNC lathe machining?

In fact, when it comes to how the price of CNC lathe machining is calculated, people in the industry know that different CNC machining manufacturers will have certain differences in the quotation for the same CNC lathe machining product. However, you can refer to the local situation to get a general understanding, and there's no need to be overly detailed.

Some CNC machining manufacturers say that their processing quotations are accurate. But in reality, if your CNC machining quotation is higher than others, it's difficult to get orders—after all, the competition is too fierce now! Anyway, we won't do this at a loss! If the CNC program is precise to two decimal places and there's a reference for the time required to complete the machining, unexpectedly, that's basically quite accurate. Find a more skilled programmer, and the tool arrangement will be absolutely reasonable without unnecessary idle tool movements. For relatively complex things, such people can save you a lot of working hours! Then your quotation will have an advantage, and you'll earn more than others!

The following introduces the commonly used price calculation methods for CNC lathe machining in various regions, for your reference!

1. The CNC lathe machining fee is estimated based on experience. Look at roughly how much time is needed to complete a CNC product, and then calculate it by the hour. The hourly price is based on general local references. This is a rough estimate of the machining fee, and it's difficult to have a precise calculation standard for CNC machining fees. Therefore, quotations from different manufacturers will vary.

2. The CNC lathe machining fee is calculated based on one's own equipment capabilities. Some CNC machining manufacturers have strong professional and technical personnel and CNC machining equipment, and can accurately create CNC machining programs. In this way, there's a reference machining time, and the tool arrangement is absolutely reasonable without unnecessary idle tool movements. For relatively complex things, such personnel can save you a lot of working hours! Such quotations have an advantage!

Every CNC lathe machining manufacturer has its own advantages: small factories are suitable for making samples, and large factories are suitable for mass production. We need to find a suitable CNC machining factory according to our own needs. Generally, the fee is calculated based on the length of the product machining time, and some are calculated based on the machine tool. For example, if your product could have been made with a lathe, but you insist on using a machining center—like with intelligent wheelchair technology—that will definitely be much more expensive. Quotations in the industry are also very different; especially in the industry, one offer is higher than another. It's best to find a reliable physical store instead of an unestablished one. As far as I know, factories that specialize in external processing are also particularly expensive. It's best to find a factory that also does external processing for itself—they offer lower prices and guaranteed quality.
