How pricing works
Three ingredients. No mystery.
Every price the quote tool shows is built the same way, from your file's actual geometry. Here's the recipe.
01
Material
What your part consumes from the sheet, priced from real stock. Bigger parts and thicker gauges cost more; efficient nesting of your quantity is factored in automatically.
02
Machine time
Cut length drives laser time. A part with intricate internal cutouts costs more to cut than a simple blank of the same size — the quote reflects your actual geometry, not a category average.
03
Setup
A one-time setup fee per line item covers programming and material handling. It's shown separately, so you can see exactly how the per-part price falls as quantity rises.
per-part price × quantity + setup = your line total. Every line of your order shows all three.
Our commitments
Priced like we'd want to be quoted
Quantity discounts are automatic
Discount tiers key off your whole order's quantity, not per line — ordering 10 of one part and 15 of another earns the 25-part break. The price ladder in the quote shows every tier.
Adjustments are visible line items
Large-format handling, order minimums, packaging — if a charge applies, it appears as its own labeled line in your cart. Nothing is folded silently into the part price.
Shipping and tax before you pay
Flat-rate shipping is estimated in the cart from your parts' real weight, and tax is calculated at checkout. The total on the pay button is the total on your card.
Review protects both sides
If your part trips a manufacturability check, you still see the price — but an engineer confirms the job before your card is charged. Adjusted quotes come to you for approval, never as a surprise charge.
The real numbers are one upload away
No account required to see your price. Quantity breaks, setup, and the full ladder — all visible the moment your file lands.
