Order CNC parts directly online via our CNC configurator. Custom-made to size and to drawing, fast delivery, flexible materials and exact tolerances.
You can order CNC parts directly online via our CNC configurator – fast, precise and reliable, from single pieces to small series. With this guide, we would like to show you in detail how you can efficiently plan, configure and place custom-made parts to measure and to drawing directly online. In addition, we explain the various materials, manufacturing processes and tolerances so that you can achieve the best possible results.
What does CNC machining mean?
CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) is the computer-aided control of machines that remove material from a blank in order to manufacture precise components according to a design plan. Common processes include milling, turning, drilling and grinding, each of which offers specific advantages for different applications. CNC machining makes it possible to produce repeatable, exact components of high quality – for prototypes, single pieces as well as small series.
Why CNC machining is important
CNC technology ensures that complex geometries can be implemented precisely. It allows tight tolerances and enables the machining of demanding materials, including high-performance plastics and metals. Digital control also minimises the error rate, which is particularly crucial in industries such as medical technology or mechanical engineering.
Custom manufacture to measure and to drawing
With our online CNC configurator, you can have components manufactured exactly to your drawings. Custom manufacture to measure is particularly useful for individual machine components, prototypes or components with complex geometries. You have full control over material selection, tolerances and surface finishing and receive a quote immediately in the configurator.
Advantages of custom CNC manufacture
- Exact implementation of your individual designs
- High repeat accuracy in series production
- Flexible material selection between plastics and metals
- Fast online ordering without lengthy quotes
- Direct cost overview and fast delivery times
Typical use cases
Custom manufacture is used in many industries, e.g. for machine components, housings for electrical appliances, seals, guide rails or chemically resistant components made from high-performance plastics.
How online ordering via the configurator works
1. Upload CAD data
Upload your design files in STEP or STL format or submit technical drawings. The configurator automatically analyses your files and recognises geometries, tolerances and manufacturing requirements.
2. Choose material and surface treatment
You can choose between aluminium, stainless steel, PEEK, PTFE and other materials. Decide on the desired surface finishing, such as grinding, polishing, anodising or painting. All options are displayed directly in the configurator.
3. Specify dimensions and tolerances
Enter the exact dimensions and tolerances to ensure the fit accuracy of your components. The configurator displays warnings for incompatible values.
4. Select quantity and delivery time
Specify the desired quantity. The configurator calculates the price in real time and displays the estimated delivery time. Single pieces and series production are supported without any problems.
5. Check the quote and complete the order
You receive a complete quote that breaks down all costs transparently. After checking it, you can complete the order directly online and start the manufacturing process.
Materials, tolerances and typical applications
| Material | Typical tolerance | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminium | ±0.1 mm | Lightweight construction, machine components, housings |
| Stainless steel | ±0.2 mm | Medical technology, food sector |
| PEEK | ±0.05 mm | High-performance plastics, chemical resistance |
| PTFE | ±0.1 mm | Seals, plain bearings, chemically aggressive environments |
| PA6 | ±0.15 mm | Mechanical components, bearings and guides |
Advantages of online ordering via the configurator
- Time saving: No waiting for manual quotes or queries.
- Precision: Exact dimensions and repeatable quality.
- Flexibility: Material, quantity and surfaces individually configurable.
- Transparency: Prices, delivery times and manufacturing options immediately visible.
- Efficiency: Direct integration into the production process, fast delivery.
- Clarity: All custom manufactures and changes are managed centrally in the configurator.
