CNC Low Volume
Don’t hesitate to let us know what you want for whether in large volume or low volume production. GM Rapid would make your dreams come true within CNC machining.
How to make CNC low volume production from CNC prototype?
Low volume production is a type of quantity-specific manufacturing which involves the production of end-use parts or prototypes. Generally speaking, its quantity reaches 100 to 10,000 units. Parts made by low volume manufacturing, which also can be called “replicas” are the link between the prototype and mass production phrases. It is carried out to close the gap between them. They are designed for specialized functions like Spare components and get used for repairing or refurbishing.
By contrast, CNC machining is more suitable for low volume production that runs with part quantities in the higher double digits or low hundreds, or in projects that have high tolerance requirements.
How we can control our quality in low volume production?
In order to maximum your time and budget, please take glance of these design tips for low volume production.
1. Examine your design which is standardized and simple.
Try your best to keep your design as simple and standardized as possible. Parts made by CNC machining must be much more accurate. Considering this point, it may be worthwhile to break up a complex piece into simpler components that can be assembled later.
2. Find an experienced partner and make the assistance a high-quality lab.
We will provide you with the one stop support what you need to make your project possible. While in the low volume production, there are lots of matters that should be kept track of. So working with a reliable partner is a valuable chance to release your duty.
3. Do some effective communication.
Typically, the buyer is aware of the product’s function and testing needs. So, whenever we receive a consumer request, we must communicate effectively with them like as below.
(1) What is the purpose of the piece?
(2) How are they validated?
(3) What measurement device or equipment will the customer employ?
4. Full comprehend the products that we’ve made.
Both project engineers and quality engineers must have a complete understanding of the customer’s drawings and specifications, and they must inspect every particular tolerance and standard.
Advantages of CNC Low Volume Production
Customers may develop high-quality items in small batches while receiving the best manufacturing services. It lists some benefits that low volume production brings to us.
- Manufacturing in low volume allows for cost savings. Low volume production aids in avoiding spending too much money all at once.
- Low volume production allows for a more flexible design. Because of the demands of clients, appealing products would be more popular.
- Because of the severe rivalry, it is critical to be the first to bring new parts to market. Low-volume production speeds up the introduction of new items to the market.
