Q I would like to know how the selection of different materials in CNC machining process affects the final machining cost?
A At JST Industry, we recognize that material selection has a significant impact on CNC machining costs. The type of material, difficulty of machining, and market availability all affect its price. For example, steel is widely used due to its lower cost, while titanium alloys and certain advanced alloys are more expensive due to their higher material cost and machining difficulty. In addition, the machinability of the material also affects the cost, e.g. aluminum alloys are usually less expensive due to their ease of machining. Our quoting system takes all of these factors into account to ensure you get the most accurate cost estimate.

Q What are some design practices that can help me reduce machining costs when designing CNC machined parts?
A JST Industry, with years of industry experience, offers the following design optimization suggestions to reduce CNC machining costs:
Consider non-functional internal right angles in the design and change them to R angles to reduce clearance costs.
Reduce the number of bone positions on the part to minimize machining time and complexity.
Increase wall thickness where appropriate to minimize the risk of deformation of the part during machining.
Use standard hole sizes and threads whenever possible to simplify the machining process.
Work with our engineers to select economically sound material and finish options.
Mark only the tolerances that are necessary and most important to the design to avoid unnecessary accuracy requirements.
