Pricing shown represents typical starting prices. Complex geometry, assemblies, extensive revisions, tight-tolerance designs, specialty engineering requirements, and incomplete source information may require a custom quote. Tempe MFG is not a licensed professional engineering firm, and these services do not include engineering certification.

Custom quotes

Prototype machining, small-batch manufacturing, complex fixturing, and unusual projects depend on material, tolerances, tooling, setup time, and quantity, so they are quoted per job.

Manufacturing

We can make it, too.

Need more than a CAD model or drawing? Tempe MFG can manufacture suitable prototypes and small production runs or help coordinate outside manufacturing processes when a project exceeds our in-house capabilities.

Request a Manufacturing Quote

We do not post machining prices. Cost depends on material, complexity, tooling, tolerances, setup time, and quantity, so each job gets its own quote.

Prototype machining

One-offs and first articles.

Small-batch CNC

Five parts, not five thousand.

3D printing

Form checks and fit tests.

Engraving

Marking, labels, identification.

Fixture manufacturing

Built from the fixtures we design.

Supplier coordination

Outside processes when a job goes beyond our shop.
