Prototyping through to production is a critical stage in the development of any new product, device, equipment, or system. However, even before those stages, the design phase of a new concept for something that is to be manufactured is an even more essential step.
Engineering or the ability to determine if the part or component is going to be durable, if it will provide the function required, and to make sure it can be manufactured to the standards required are all essential before the prototyping step. Using custom machining services from one company to move from engineering and design through to prototyping and production is the ideal option for any OEM outsourcing these services.
Saving Money in Manufacturing
Using experienced custom machining services can save an OEM money in the manufacturing process. The CNC machining service providers are able to consider the design, the end use requirements, industry standards, and customer tolerances to develop the most economical way to produce the part.
Saving even a few cents per unit with large volume orders can add up very quickly, resulting in overall cost savings and a more competitively priced final product.
Less Waste
CNC custom machining services can be set up and configured to produce the least amount of waste possible. By saving on the raw material used, and maximizing production efficiency and quality control, there is virtually no waste once production starts. This results in lower offer costs to the OEM, and this can be sustained over ongoing production.
Reliability
Machining services offering custom services have a history of being reliable partners for OEMs. They can not only produce parts to the specs and tolerances required, but they also ensure on-time delivery with every order, preventing downtime with assembly and fabrication and avoiding problems with supply chain management.
