The tips provided by the MQJM team will help you save costs:
Choose the appropriate materials
Selecting suitable materials is crucial for cost savings when designing machined parts. The most suitable material is not necessarily the most expensive; you must choose based on the part's purpose and functionality.
Avoid thin-wall designs
Thinner walls in steel machined parts require more time for processing, even special processing, making it challenging to maintain accurate tolerances and increasing the cost of machining parts. To keep the machining part's price low, avoid thin-wall designs.
Order in bulk
It's well known that the quantity of CNC part orders has a significant impact on the unit price. If you need 5,000 identical machined parts, placing a single order for 5,000 is much cheaper than ordering 500 parts ten times.
