Many German buyers who are contacting an overseas contract manufacturer for the first time share the same concern: Will the process be complicated, opaque, or difficult to monitor? In fact, the process differs little from making an inquiry with a German machining company—it consists solely of clearly defined steps.

Step 1: Inquiry and Technical Documentation

To provide a reliable quote, we need:

  • Technical drawing in STEP, DXF, or PDF format with tolerance specifications
  • desired material
  • Quantity (One-time order, annual requirement, serial call-off)
  • Desired surface treatment, if necessary

The more complete the information, the more accurate and faster the quote.

Step 2: Proposal and Clarification of Outstanding Issues

We review the drawing, clarify any technical questions directly with your design team, and prepare a quote that includes the price, delivery time, and delivery terms. We resolve any unclear tolerances or material-related issues before order confirmation—not during production.

Step 3: Initial Sample / Prototype

Before series production begins, we can manufacture one or more prototype parts upon request. These are measured, documented, and sent to you for approval. Series production begins only after we receive your written approval—this helps you avoid costly defective batches.

Step 4: Mass Production and Quality Control

During mass production, we perform [prototype testing / random sampling / 100% testing — adjust as needed based on the actual procedure]. Upon request, you will receive test reports and dimensional reports with your shipment.

Step 5: Packaging and Shipping

The parts will be professionally packaged and shipped in accordance with the agreed-upon delivery terms. You will receive tracking information and all accompanying documents required for import.

Step 6: Recurring Orders

After the first successful delivery, the processing of follow-up orders proceeds much more quickly—the drawings, tolerances, and contact persons are already known, so the lead time for subsequent production runs is usually reduced to just the manufacturing and shipping time.

Conclusion

A CNC contract manufacturing project in Turkey follows a structured process consisting of six transparent steps—with clear approval milestones before larger quantities are produced. This gives you the same level of control you would expect from a domestic supplier.
