The World's First Truly Online Machine Shop
The first and leading machine shop designed for the Internet, eMachineShop's
mission is to provide easy, convenient and low-cost fabrication of
custom parts via the web. We achieve our mission by fully leveraging
the web, software, and state-of-the-art machining technologies.
eMachineShop pioneered online machining.
We have made it more convenient and easier than ever for both engineers
and non-engineers to make custom parts. You download the easy-to-use free eMachineShop 3D CAD software and draw your part. When you're happy with your design, you simply
click for instant pricing and ordering.
eMachineShop allows you the ease and convenience to:
• Produce parts for existing products
• Design and make new products
• Fabricate replacement parts
• Implement new ideas and inventions
• Make any kind of custom part for any purpose
What makes us Different from traditional machine shops?
Using a conventional machine shop to make custom fabricated parts
is a cumbersome process involving an often
long sequence of time-consuming visits, phone calls, faxes, or emails.

We eliminate the need for Costly Software & extensive training
Also, the available CAD software options are often expensive and difficult to learn. The eMachineShop CAD software
is easy to learn, offers powerful features, and is offered free!
Software commands are included for creating designs, evaluating
designs, getting automated price quotations, and ordering. In addition to the ease and speed of placing orders, the
expert Auto-Analysis tools built into the software guides less
experienced engineers and
even non-engineers through the process without the need for expensive
engineering support, saving even more time and money.
Many machine shops have high minimum quantities
Because of the cumbersome process with conventional fabricators, many fabricators avoid customers seeking short runs. And even for long runs customers are discouraged from doing too many what-if price quotations.
Cut out the hassles and get your part in hand!
eMachineShop solves these problems and streamlines the entire custom fabrication process from the user's screen to delivery at the user's door. Whether
you are making one bracket for a computer chassis, 100 levers for a
home-built airplane kit, or producing parts for 100,000 cell phones,
eMachineShop will be a key factor in your success.
