Compare Machines for an Order

Checks selected machines against envelope and machining requirements and compares known order costs.

Pre-calculate manufacturingDerives material demand, times, and a machine rate from stock, material, and manufacturing assumptions. Machine Hourly RateDetermines the cost of a machine hour from acquisition, interest, floor space, energy, and maintenance. Unit cost and selling priceCombines material, machining and auxiliary time, setup, programming, finishing, overhead, and profit into cost and selling price per part. Quote calculationCalculates multiple line items including one-off costs, discounts, freight, and VAT.

How to use the result

Replace the sample candidates completely with confirmed data for your own machines and planned times.

Fit checking uses the specified orientation. Confirm workholding, tool lengths, torque curve, workpiece mass, accuracy, and actual availability separately.

The cost comparison includes only supplied candidates with complete prices and times. Unknown costs remain unresolved; capacity occupancy and delivery dates are not checked.

Formulas

batch cost = hourly rate × (setup time + batch size × cycle time) / 60milling travel per axis ≥ stock dimension + 2 × clearanceturning envelope: usable diameter ≥ stock diameter + 2 × clearance; Z ≥ length + 2 × clearance

Sources: Dimensional comparison and time-based costing; no external machine or price database. Machine parameters, setup times and cycle times must come from confirmed internal data.
