CNC Machining: The Advantages of Small Batch CNC Machining

35   |   Published by VMT at Jun 07 2022

 

 

 

VMT CNC machining manufacturers found in the reception of customers that in addition to scientific research or exhibitions for customized CNC machining prototypes, some customers' products are to be pushed to sales channels to quickly occupy the market.

 

They made prototypes in VMT custom CNC machining. After verifying the appearance, function and structure of the product, they planned to mass-produce CNC machining and put them on the market.

 

But think carefully if the market response is not good after the product is opened and put into the market, and the product sales are not optimistic, what should I do? At this time, I generally suggest that you can consider small batch CNC machining production!

 

 


1. The production cost of small batch CNC machining is lower

 


Some plastic material products can be produced by small batch CNC machining of prototypes or large-scale production by using steel molds, but the cost of molds is very high if the molds are opened.

 

If there is no demand for large-scale CNC machining products, the high cost of mold opening will greatly increase the production cost of CNC machining, and these increased costs will reduce the competitiveness of CNC machining products in the market.

 

 

 

 

Secondly, because the number of small batch CNC machining production orders is too small, general mold factories without profit will not accept them. Even if we want to open mold production, we cannot find CNC machining factories that are willing to accept orders.

 

However, in the aspect of prototyping CNC machining factories, small batch CNC machining and production is a very cost-effective business. Even if the profit is a proper concession than that of prototyping, the prototyping CNC machining factories are very happy to accept it.

 

On the customer's side, although the production cost of a single product has increased, the overall production cost has decreased.

 


 

 

2. Small batch CNC machining production cycle is shorter

 


The production cycle of steel molds is relatively long, ranging from about one month to several months, and this does not include the time required for modification and adjustment. And small batch of prototype custom CNC machining can start production as soon as 1 day.

 

In terms of production cycle, small batch CNC machining production has more advantages.

 

 

 

The small batch CNC machining production service provided by VMT can flexibly select the appropriate CNC machining method according to the number of customer orders and product requirements, and quickly solve customer needs. Get a head start on our product launch.

 

 


3. Small batch CNC machining production can flexibly adjust the market

 


Under normal circumstances, after the design and development of new products, the main concern is that they cannot ensure that the CNC machining products will be welcomed by the market.

 

If you open the mold rashly and carry out large-scale CNC machining production, if it exceeds your expectations, you may face the risk of losing everything.

 

 

 

However, through the small batch CNC machining production of the prototype, the market can be adjusted flexibly, and the test can be carried out according to the market demand.

 

If the market feedback is good and the demand is strong, we can carry out small batch CNC machining production and supply, while preparing to open molds for large batch CNC machining production.

 

If the sales volume is not good, we can also stop production in time and make adjustments to the product according to the feedback from the consumer market.

 

As a prototype manufacturer that provides small batch CNC machining, VMT has 13 years of experience in custom CNC machining of prototypes. The cooperative customers involve automobiles, robots, home appliances, drones, etc., from Volkswagen, Haas, bell, AXA, vtech, etc. are our partners.

 

 


If you have any questions or needs for hand plate molds and small batch CNC machining production, you can contact us directly, we will provide customers with the most professional and high-quality services. There are many ways to realize small batch CNC machining production, and we need to choose the appropriate solution according to our product needs.
