How are CNC Fabrication Service costs determined?
Simply put, Time and Material.

Time. CNC Service involves 3-4 steps. We charge for each step we perform for you:

  1. Computer Aided Design (CAD) Service. Your idea needs to be turned into a scaled digital design, ready for CNC-output

  2. Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) Service. Your digital design need to be converted to machine code. This is done with CAM or Slicer software

  3. Machine Output. The actual printing or cutting of your design. This includes material preparation, machine setup/clean-up, and actual machine run time. At CIADC, our Staff will always operate the machines

  4. Project Consultation. We need to fully understand the scope of your CNC job before we can quote it. 15 minutes of consultation are included for free. Additional time needed will be handled as hourly Private Instruction

Material. CIADC stocks select materials for purchase, or we can order for you. Any supplied materials must be approved by CIADC Staff as safe and effective for our CNC process prior to use; please contact us for more information
