How to hire a machine shop
What to have ready before you request quotes
Machining quotes come together fastest from real files. Helpful to share: a 3D CAD model (STEP or Parasolid) and a dimensioned 2D drawing with tolerances, the material and any heat-treat or plating spec, the quantity (and whether this is a prototype or an ongoing part), and the finish. Note any critical features, GD&T callouts, or inspection requirements. Even a STEP file and a print get you real numbers instead of ballparks.
Tolerances, GD&T, and inspection
Call out only the tolerances you need. Standard machining holds roughly plus or minus 0.005 in without special effort, and every tightened tolerance, flatness, position, or surface-finish callout adds cost and inspection time. If a feature is critical, say so and specify the check: dimensional report, first-article inspection (FAI), or full CMM. Shops with a documented quality system (ISO 9001, AS9100 for aerospace) can provide certs, material traceability, and the inspection data regulated programs require.
Choosing material and finish
Material drives both cost and machinability. Aluminum (6061, 7075) machines fast and suits most brackets and housings; stainless (303, 304, 316) and steel add strength and corrosion resistance at higher cost; titanium and PEEK serve demanding aerospace, medical, and chemical uses. Finish is a separate decision: as-machined, bead blast, anodize, black oxide, passivation, or plating. Match the shop to the work, a Swiss shop running small turned parts is a different operation than a 5-axis shop cutting complex prismatic housings.
What it costs and how long it takes
Machined parts are quoted per part, driven by setup, cycle time, material, and quantity, so unit price drops as volume rises. Prototypes commonly ship in one to three weeks; production lead times depend on quantity, finishing, and inspection scope. Posting your part on OpenSpindle gets you a competitive quote from qualified shops, detailing price, lead time, and quality capability before you release the job.
