I’ve been in this game for over twenty years, and I’ll tell you straight – getting quality custom parts shouldn’t be complicated. Here’s how our online quote process works, no runaround guaranteed.
1. The Straightforward Path to Your Custom Parts Quote
Visit Our Website
Head to https://alliedcn.com and click “Get Quote.” Simple as that.
Tell Us What You Need
Fill out the quick form with:
- Your contact info (so we can actually get back to you)
- Project details (what’s this part actually do?)
- Quantity needed
- Tolerances needed (standard ±0.005″ or tighter?)
- Surface finish requirements (as-machined, anodized, bead blasted?)
- Material preferences (if you have them)
Pro tip: The more details you give us upfront, the faster we can turn around an accurate quote.
Send Us Your Files
This is where the magic happens. Send over your:
- CAD files (STEP, IGES, SLDPRT preferred)
- Drawings (PDF works great)
- Specific requirements (tolerances, finishes, etc.)
Real Talk: We’ve seen it all – from napkin sketches to fully modeled assemblies. If you’re not sure what you need, just tell us what the part should DO, and we’ll help figure out the rest.
Engineering Review
Our engineers (actual humans, not algorithms) review your project within hours. We look for:
- Manufacturability issues
- Cost-saving opportunities
- Potential improvements
- Material alternatives
Get Your Detailed Quote
Within 1-2 business days (usually faster), you’ll receive:
- Firm pricing
- Lead time
- Technical recommendations
- Any questions we might have
2. Why Machinists Choose Allied Metal
We’re not just another job shop. We’re the partner you wish you’d found years ago.
- One-Stop Solution: From prototype to production run
- Actual Expertise: Our machinists average 15+ years experience
- Quality You Can Count On: First-article inspection on every new job
- No Surprises: What we quote is what you pay
3. Our Internal Review: Where the Expert Touch Comes In
Once your files hit our system, our DFM (Design for Manufacturing) team jumps in. This is where we add value beyond just material volume.
The 48-Hour Promise
We commit to a detailed quotation, including final pricing, lead time, and technical feedback, within 1-2 business days. Our engineers personally review every single feature against our machining capabilities.
What We Check Instantly:
- Feasibility: Can we actually make this part with the specified material and tolerances?
- Tooling Access: Are there deep, narrow features that will require specialized, slow, and expensive tooling?
- Cost Optimization: Can we suggest minor design tweaks (like adjusting an internal radius or relaxing a non-critical tolerance) to save you 30% on machining time?
