Precision CNC Machine Shop in San Diego

Machine-shop hourly charges vary based on the machine type, programming complexity, material, setup time, inspection needs, and required turnaround. A straightforward repeat part generally requires less setup than a new, tight-tolerance prototype. For an accurate estimate, provide a CAD file or drawing, quantity, material preference, critical dimensions, and any finishing requirements so the full scope can be evaluated.

Finine Design and Manufacturing provides CNC machining from its manufacturing facility at 6302 Federal Blvd, Suite B, San Diego, CA 92114. The company supports prototype and production-level needs and can also coordinate CAD modeling, 3D printing, urethane casting, injection molding, painting, and product graphics. Appointments and facility tours are available by request.

A 3D CAD model is the most useful starting point for CNC machining, commonly accompanied by a 2D drawing that identifies critical dimensions, tolerances, threads, surface finishes, and materials. Include the desired quantity and application details. If the design is not finalized, Finine can provide CAD modeling and design-refinement support before prototyping or machining.

Yes. Finine supports CNC-machined prototypes and production-level manufacturing needs. The broader service mix also helps match the process to the project stage: 3D printing for rapid iteration, urethane casting for low-to-medium volumes, and injection molding for high-volume plastic components. This connected approach helps teams transition without restarting with a different vendor.

Finine supports clients in automotive, military and defense, consumer electronics, and medical industries. Its experience includes specialized dental and orthopedic medical products. Because each industry may require different materials, functionality, documentation, or finishing, project requirements are reviewed early to determine the most appropriate development and manufacturing path.

Yes. CAD modeling and design refinement are available before machining begins. Reviewing a part early can clarify geometry, intended function, material choices, and how the component will be manufactured. That process is especially useful when moving from an initial concept to a physical prototype, or when preparing a design for more repeatable production.

Material selection should be based on the part’s function, mechanical requirements, operating environment, finish, and production quantity. Share the intended application and any material specification with the project team during the initial review. If the product is better suited to a plastic prototype, urethane casting, or injection molding rather than machining, Finine can recommend an integrated development path.

Finine is available Monday through Friday, at minimum, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with appointments available by request. Send project details, drawings, or CAD files to Jaime@fi9design.com, or call 1.858.900-9787. Clients may also request a consultation or facility tour at the San Diego manufacturing location.
