Mechanical and plant engineering
The sector with the widest variety and with the “any” part: brackets, flanges, shafts, plates, covers. It has no dominant requirement - but it does have the shortest lead-time expectations and the greatest price sensitivity.
What parts come from this sector
The "anything" part: brackets, flanges, shafts, plates, covers. This is the branch with the widest variety and the smallest runs, so setup time decides rather than cutting speed - a part in ten pieces is paid for in fixtures and tooling, not in minutes of cutting.
What decides at quotation
Here the calculation is driven by the number of set-ups and the batch size, not by any one tolerance. A part finished in a single set-up carries no repositioning error and no setup on a second machine. A complete drawing - material, condition, functional dimensions marked, quantity and call-off pattern - shortens the quotation more than anything else, because it removes the rounds of clarification.
