How to Get a CNC Machining Quote from China — in 24 Hours
Send a drawing · DFM feedback · Quotation within 24 hours · No strict MOQ
Get a CNC machining quote from China in 24 hours. Send a STEP file with material and quantity for DFM feedback and pricing. 220 CNC machines. ISO 9001. Engineering teams review drawings and return manufacturability feedback within 24 hours.
A useful quotation is more than a price: it tells you which features are difficult, which tolerances drive cost, and how fast the part can actually ship. CHX Metal answers RFQs from a Shenzhen plant running 220 CNC machines, and returns pricing with manufacturability feedback within 24 hours.
What to send for an accurate quote
- 3D model (STEP, IGES, X_T) or 2D drawing (DXF, DWG, PDF), ideally both
- Material and surface finish
- Quantity per order and annual volume
- Critical tolerances and inspection requirements
- Target lead time and delivery destination
If your drawings are confidential, we sign a mutual NDA before we receive them.
What drives the price of a CNC part
Unit price in CNC machining is set mainly by cycle time, material cost, tolerance and finish. Tight tolerances, hard materials and multi-stage finishing raise cost; so does low quantity, because setup is spread over fewer parts. Sharing an annual volume often lowers the unit price.
How our quotation process works
- Step 1 — Send files: drawing, material, quantity, finish
- Step 2 — DFM review: our engineers flag manufacturability and cost drivers
- Step 3 — Quotation: price, lead time and documentation scope within 24 hours
- Step 4 — Prototype: 3–7 days after approval, CMM-verified
- Step 5 — Production: 7–15 days per batch, up to 5,000,000 PCS/month
Choosing between several quotes
When you compare quotations from different suppliers, look past the headline price: check the tolerance actually committed, whether CMM and material reports are included, the realistic lead time, and who signs a quality agreement. The cheapest quote is not a saving if the parts need rework.
Documentation and traceability
Our quotations state what is included — first-article inspection, CMM dimensional reports, EN 10204 3.1 material certificates and batch traceability — so there are no surprises after the order. Tell us in the RFQ which documents your end customer requires.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum order quantity? No strict MOQ — single prototypes through volume production are both welcome.
Can you sign an NDA before quoting? Yes, we sign a mutual NDA before receiving your drawings.
What affects the price most? Cycle time, material, tolerance, finish and quantity — sharing an annual volume usually lowers the unit price.
