How to place a CNC order

Step1. Account Setup

Before you start placing CNC orders with JLCPCB, it is a good idea to create an account first, as this will help you with a smoother user experience as well as file management.

Step2. Preparing Your Design Files &Get a Quote

To get a quote for custom CNC parts on the JLCPCB platform, you only need to supply a 3D CAD file.Contemporary CNC machining systems can directly interpret a part's geometry from CAD files, potentially eliminating the need for supplementary documentation like technical drawings.


However, while technical drawings are not necessary to request a quote for CNC machining, they are still very important and widely used in manufacturing.

Especially if your design includes the following points:

1.When your design contain threads;

2.When any tolerances are specified;

3.When certain surfaces need a different finishing;

Currently JLCPCB supports the following file formats:

3D (required): STEP (.step, .stp)

2D: pdf, dwg, dxf

Compressed files: zip, rar.

Step 3. Configuring CNC Parameters

The quotate page is where you can modify the product parameters you require, including details of quantity, materials, finishes, tolerances and more. More information on selecting materials and surface finishes is available for your reference.
