In 2025’s competitive manufacturing landscape, custom CNC lathe parts have become game-changers. According to Statista, the global CNC machining market will reach $117.7 billion by 2028. But here’s the catch – not all custom components deliver equal value.
Material | Best For | Cost Range |
---|---|---|
Aluminum 6061 | Aerospace components | $25-$40/kg |
Stainless 316 | Medical devices | $80-$120/kg |
Our team recently encountered a fascinating case where tighter tolerances (±0.001″) increased part costs by 35% but reduced assembly time by 60%.
Many manufacturers overlook post-processing costs. Anodizing or hardening treatments can add 15-25% to your total budget!
