Aluminum alloy parts processing and hardware parts processing are generally carried out through CNC Machining and other methods. However, due to the low entry threshold of CNC machining, there are many small CNC machining workshops in the market, which also cause uncertainty in price and quality. Today, let's take a look at how to grasp the price of hardware parts processing, so that you can find CNC machining manufacturers with quality assurance but not excessively expensive hardware parts
Finding a suitable CNC processing plant
Each manufacturer has its own advantages. Small factories are suitable for sampling, while large factories are suitable for large quantities. We need to find a suitable CNC machining factory according to our own needs, usually calculated based on the length of product processing time, and also calculated based on machine tools. For example, if your product can be made using a lathe, but you have to find a machining center to do it, it will definitely be much more expensive. The quotes in the industry are also very different, and they are very mixed. If you want to find a guaranteed one, it is best not to look for a store, but to look for a physical factory. As far as I know, factories that specialize in external processing are also very expensive. It is best to find those that process for yourself but also for external processing, and their prices are also very high. Cheap, with guaranteed quality.

How to calculate the price of hardware parts processing
1. First, we need to look at your drawings and technical requirements
2. The materials and labor vary in different regions, and in some places, there is a significant price difference
3. Generally, parts are calculated based on material cost, processing cost, and profit. The processing cost depends on the process, and the price varies depending on the different processing equipment used. Some are calculated based on working hours (such as turning time, grinding time, etc.), while others are calculated based on the process (such as how much it costs to fold a plate into a knife, how much it costs to drill a regular hole, etc.)
4. There is also a quantity issue. Of course, if the quantity is large, it will be cheap. If it is a single piece, it will be disastrous. Even if it is a small piece and the materials are not sold, the price of your entire board will have to be calculated! For example, you mentioned 0.3, which is not commonly used by manufacturers. If you only have one or two pieces and only buy one board at a time (such as 1220 * 2440), then your material costs will be wasted.
5. If the problem with the processing plant can be solved by the parts processing plant itself, then there is no problem. If the processing plant itself has some processes that need to be outsourced, the price will also increase accordingly. If you have already outsourced, it means you have gone through two outsourcing processes! So when looking for a processing factory, you also need to find the right one, find what they can do and what they are good at.
Specific CNC machining price calculation:
CNC lathe processing cost: The standard algorithm is working hours * wages per working hour+fixed expenses that should be shared, such as depreciation expenses. The general processing fee for CNC machine tools is 60 yuan per hour. The machine tool is about 1 meter long and is a regular vertical machining machine. In areas with fewer machine tools, the price has slightly increased by more than 10 yuan. Of course, the price may vary depending on the processing capacity of the machine.
Ordinary anodizing costs approximately 10-12 yuan per kg. Assembly depends on the specific product. It is usually calculated by quantity, and how much does it cost per unit.
Reference quotation for ordinary anodizing: 10 yuan per kilogram for black, 8 yuan per kilogram for white (silver), and 12 yuan per kilogram for color. Just for reference price, subject to the company's quotation.
