Where to buy CNC parts

CNC parts resources 

Finding the right repair or maintenance parts for a CNC machine can be challenging. Production managers and machine operators know how important it is to have repair and replacement parts resources available in case of emergencies. Breakdowns can occur at any time and can cause more problems than just a stopped production line. Idle machines mean idle workers and that means losing money and not making money. Obtaining the right parts for routine maintenance or emergency repairs should be a simple and straightforward process and not an exercise in futility and frustration. Because CNC machine use is so widespread throughout industry, the right parts can be found if the right channels are followed.

Where to buy CNC parts

There are always going to be choices for vendors of CNC parts. CNC machines are highly technical pieces of equipment requiring specialized knowledge and training for proper operation, maintenance, and upgrading. Each manufacturer has specific hardware and software that works with their equipment which often limits the number of resources for CNC parts Three places to go for CNC parts are:

OEM 

The original manufacturer of the CNC machine will have replacement and maintenance parts for their machines. Original equipment manufacturer, also known as “OEM”, parts have some distinct advantages. Parts are designed and engineered to fit better because the manufacturer designed the machine to start with. Warranty periods are generally longer for parts sourced from the OEM. Customer support for installing repair or upgrade parts is also better because the engineering was done by the company.

CNC repair professionals

Many CNC manufacturers utilize local repair and maintenance shops with specialized training to support their machines in the field. CNC manufacturers can’t be everywhere at the same time and local repair shops can be an important asset to CNC machine operators.
