As one of the important equipment in the field of manufacturing production, CNC machines are considered as an vital guarantee to promote the leap forward of CNC manufacturing industry. Among numerous CNC machine manufacturers all over the world, some of them have placed advertisements in different media. Then shall we believe the advertisements? Are the CNC machine manufacturers on the advertisements suitable for your business?

The answer is not necessarily.

Except for the advertising information, which aspects of the CNC machine manufacturers should you pay attention to?

1.Professionalism of CNC machine manufacturers

A qualified CNC machine manufacturer not only needs to be familiar with CNC machine for sale, but also understands the industry's production standards, requirements, processes and development trends. Good CNC machine manufacturers must be the companies that have been dedicated to CNC machine products for many years. If you are looking for a CNC machine automation solution, you should look for a CNC machine manufacturer that is dedicated to this. A professional CNC machine manufacturer can understand your needs very well and help you reduce ineffective communication.

Do they have professional R&D team and business team?

A professional R&D team is the guarantee of good and innovative CNC machinery. The R&D team determines what kind of products will be produced. As highly sophisticated products, there are more stringent standards for the technical level, production processes and other aspects of the CNC machine manufacturers.

To evaluate a CNC machine manufacturer, you may consider the following aspects:
  1. Professional technical team, including development and research of new products;
  2. Effective sales team., including practical and effective sales channels and strategies;

2.Products that CNC machine manufacturers provide

Are the CNC machines complete and up to date?

The CNC machine products fall into many types, such as CNC cutting machine, CNC engraving machine, CNC router machine, CNC plasma cutting machine etc. There are also some production lines and solutions. Each type of CNC machine also have a wide range of models due to different specifications. One customer may need several CNC machines.

If your business involve CNC machining solutions, for example, cabinet or furniture production line, you may need multiple CNC machines. For example, CNC nesting machine, CNC wood router, edge banding machine, labeling machine etc. Therefore, you need to make sure whether the CNC machine manufacturer can produce all the machines you need. The CNC machine manufacturers able to provide all the machines you need can save you much time and energy. So you don't have to screen for other CNC machine manufacturers.

What's more, don't forget to look into the production equipment and the parts that the CNC machine manufacturer uses. You wouldn't trust your business to off-brands or out-dated tools. The production equipment that the CNC machine manufacturer uses should be durable and trusted. Because CNC machining intends to change based on available technology, so the computer system, software and tools used should be recent.

CNC machines recommendation

We've mentioned above that good CNC manufacturers shall be able to upgrade their CNC machines continuously. However, small CNC machine manufacturers may not be able to upgrade their machines frequently. But we, one of the leading CNC machine manufactures, have always been updating our products. In 2021, we launched many intelligent and automated CNC machine. For example, the computer beam saw, six-sided CNC drilling machine, and automatic edge banding machine have been highly recognized by our customers.

 

Besides, you can add a drilling head, saw blade spindle, or other upgraded configurations to this ATC CNC router. Most CNC machine manufacturers provide this model because it has the highest cost performance ratio.
 
 
As a professional CNC machine manufacturer, we provide many types of both manual and automatic edge banding machines. You can choose a suitable machine according to your specific needs.

3.Service that CNC machine manufacturers provide

Except for the CNC machine for sale itself, service is also one of the criteria for choosing a right CNC machine manufacturer. In the case of similar products and fierce competition, it is not so much that consumers buy goods as consumers enjoy services. As a part of the machines, CNC machine service is an auxiliary tool to realize the value of the machines. Good CNC machine manufacturers should be able to provide comprehensive pre-sales, during-sales and after-sales services.

In addition, good CNC machine manufacturers must have a complete purchase process, from inquiry to final after-sales service. The improvement of the process helps to regulate the behaviors of the CNC machine manufacturers and buyers. And the signing of the contract helps to stipulate the rights and obligations of both parties, so that the entire purchase process is based on evidence.

4.Production capacity of CNC machine manufacturers

Before making a decision, you need to find out what is the production capacity of the CNC machine manufacturer. Some CNC machine manufacturers only have the ability for prototype machining and small-batch machining. The number of CNC machines and the size of the CNC machine manufacturers is an indication if the CNC machining company can handle either small batch CNC machining or mass production of CNC machine products.

What's the scale of production of CNC machine manufacturers? The scale of production of a CNC machine manufacturer can reflect the number of orders of the company to some extent. Because the CNC machine manufacturers with large quantity of orders will continuous increase and maintain their scale of production to ensure timely delivery.

Are the CNC machine manufacturers hiring? Similar to investing in a large facility, a manufacturer that is actively hiring shows a burgeoning business. CNC machine manufacturers that need more employees have enough incoming work to warrant bringing in new workers.

Does the CNC machine manufacturer has patents or obtains relevant certifications? Possessing multiple patents and product certifications also can indicate that the manufacturer has good R&D ability and high quality products.

Production capacity of Blue Elephant

5.Delivery ability of CNC machine manufacturers

Your time is vital to your business operations. Every step of your supply chain must work in a finely scheduled action. Any delays in transfer at any stage of the process can throw off your own delivery to your customers. To avoid such problematic situations when you choose CNC machine manufacturers, please check their delivery policy.

Will the CNC machine manufacturer provide delivery guarantee? Can you track your order? What does the CNC machine manufacturer do to ensure on-time deliveries?

Other considerations for choosing CNC machine manufacturers

In addition to strength, products and services of the CNC machine manufacturers, there also are other considerations when choosing a right CNC machine manufacturer. For example, the CNC machine price. Many customers may think that the CNC machine price is too expensive. Others may hesitate whether the CNC machine is worthwhile. It is certainly necessary to consider these questions. Because the CNC machine price is relatively high, which may cost you thousands of dollars.

But I recommend that you go for long-term value, not just cheapest price.

When it comes to CNC machining, the best equipment costs a lot for you to invest in, but they produce better results in less time. Besides, too often, low prices mean low quality. Don't make this mistake. Look beyond the price when comparing the manufacturers. Consider your return in value over the long term, which cost rarely indicates. Well-made orders delivered on time will be a better investment than cheaply produced parts from a cut-rate shop.

Conclusion

Choosing a right CNC machine manufacturer could be time-consuming and laborious, because there are many factors to consider. For example, the qualifications, production capacity, products and services that the CNC machine manufacturer can provide. If you have time, it is best to visit the factory to check their production and make comparisons among multiple CNC machine manufacturers. In addition, you shall also take your budget, the CNC machine price, and the choice of domestic and foreign machines into consideration.

If you are considering to choose a right CNC machine manufacturer, before you start your investigation, please take a look at Blue Elephant. We have been committed to the research, development and production of CNC machine for sale since 2010. And we have been striving to provide better services for all customers.
