Working With A CNC Machining Shop In Vancouver Vs Buying Your Own CNC Machinery

Companies that require multiple parts and prototypes sometimes consider buying their own CNC machinery instead of going with a shop. While sometimes this makes sense, more often than not, using the services of a CNC machining shop, like our space here at Aptech in Vancouver, is more beneficial in the long run. Today we are going to look at the reasons why that is the case.

Costs

CNC machinery is very expensive. When you buy a machine, you not only have the initial cost, but you also have to insure and maintain it for years to come, along with having to pay for the bills for the power it uses. Working with a CNC machining shop in Vancouver like Aptech is far more cost effective, even when you need multiple parts or prototypes.

More Than Machinery

When you work with our CNC machining shop in Vancouver you are working with more than just our machinery. You will also get access to our expert team of designers, engineers, and other specialists. If you choose to buy your own CNC machinery, then you will also have to learn how to operate it, which will take a long time, as it is quite a specialized skill.

Central Location

Our CNC machining shop in Vancouver is located just outside the city, in the Richmond area, right near Vancouver International Airport. Our shop is very easy to reach by transit or road. Given the rising costs of rent in the city, if you do decide to buy your own, you are also going to spend a lot of money on renting a space in which to keep it. Don’t give yourself the extra stress; use our CNC machining shop in Vancouver instead.

Satisfied Customers

If it is your first time buying CNC machinery, then it is probably going to be a while before you start getting good results from it. At Aptech, we always produce great parts and prototypes as you will see from our customer testimonials on our website!

While it can sometimes be a good thing to own your own machinery, when it comes to CNC machinery it is often more hassle than it is worth. This is especially the case when there is a highly reputable CNC machining shop here in Vancouver right here on the Aptech premises in Richmond.
