How ordering works
The easiest way to source custom parts
Start with an instant quote
Select CNC machining, 3D printing or sheet metal fabrication and upload your CAD file. We can also provide a quote for injection molding within 48 hours. All uploads are secure and confidential.
Our competitive prices and lead times appear in seconds. What you see is the final price you’ll pay, including shipping, quality control and customs clearance (if it applies). You can choose to manufacture CNC machining orders locally or globally.
Edit the parameters of your quote to immediately adjust it for volume pricing, different materials, tolerances, secondary processes and more. Feel free to compare multiple quotes side by side. You can also upload a technical drawing and request certifications.
Optimize your design
Our Design for Manufacturability (DFM) tool analyzes your design for manufacturing, with tips on how to reduce costs and lead times.
