CNC Machine Finance

CNC Machine Finance for Manufacturing & Engineering Businesses

CNC machinery can help improve production capacity, precision and efficiency across manufacturing and engineering operations.

At My Finance Consultants, we compare CNC machine finance across a broad range of equipment lenders.

We help businesses finance new and used CNC machinery with loan structures designed around the asset, cash flow and repayment requirements.

What CNC Machines Can Be Financed?

Finance is available for a broad range of eligible computer-controlled manufacturing machinery.

This can include CNC mills, lathes, routers, machining centres and other specialised production equipment.

Dealer and equipment-supplier purchases generally provide the widest lender choice.

Used, private-sale and selected imported machinery may also be considered, subject to lender requirements.

The machine's age, condition, purchase price and expected working life can affect the available finance terms.

CNC Machine Finance Options

Chattel Mortgage

A chattel mortgage is commonly used where your business wants to purchase and own the CNC machine.

The lender provides funds towards the purchase while registering security over the financed equipment.

Repayments are then made over an agreed term.

Balloon Payments

Selected lenders allow a balloon payment to remain at the end of the finance term.

This can reduce your regular repayments and help preserve business working capital.

A larger balloon also leaves a larger final amount to repay or refinance.

We compare different structures before you proceed.

Leasing Options

Selected CNC machinery may also be suitable for a commercial leasing structure.

Leasing can provide an alternative where your business prefers different ownership or replacement arrangements.

The available structure depends on the lender, machine and transaction.

Your accountant should confirm the tax treatment of any proposed finance arrangement.

New, Used & Imported CNC Machinery

Both new and used CNC machines can be financed.

Used machinery may be subject to maximum asset-age requirements, valuations or shorter finance terms.

Imported CNC machinery can also be considered with selected lenders.

Additional documentation may be required to confirm the supplier, purchase contract, equipment specifications and total landed cost.

We recommend reviewing the finance before committing to a large imported-equipment purchase.

Financing Software, Accessories & Installation

A CNC purchase can involve more than the machine itself.

Tooling, controllers, integrated software and other equipment may form part of the overall transaction.

Selected lenders may allow eligible accessories to be included where they form an integral part of the financed machine.

Installation, freight and other project costs can receive different lender treatment.

We review the complete supplier quote before determining the amount that can be financed.

What Lenders Consider

The lender will assess both your business and the CNC machinery being financed.

This can include your trading history, existing liabilities, credit profile and ability to meet the proposed repayments.

The lender may also consider the machine's age, manufacturer, specifications and resale market.

Established businesses may qualify for streamlined documentation with selected lenders.

Larger or specialised transactions may require business financial statements, tax returns or additional equipment information.

Our CNC Machine Finance Process

Review Your Machinery Purchase

We discuss the CNC machine, supplier, purchase price and intended business use.

We also review your preferred finance term, contribution and repayment structure.

Compare Suitable Lenders

We compare suitable equipment lenders based on your business and the machinery being purchased.

We assess rates, fees, documentation requirements, balloon options and asset policy.

Application & Approval

We prepare your finance application and coordinate the supporting information required by the selected lender.

We then manage lender questions and approval requirements.

Settlement

Once approved, we coordinate settlement with the equipment supplier or approved seller.

For imported machinery, additional payment and supplier requirements may need to be satisfied before funds are released.
