If you're planning to add a unique attraction to your business, ordering a custom toy crane machine is an exciting step. A common and crucial question we receive is: "What's the lead time?" The answer isn't one-size-fits-all, as it depends on several key factors. Generally, you can expect the entire process to take anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks.

The timeline begins with the design and approval phase. Once you share your ideas and requirements, our team creates detailed design mockups for your review. This collaborative stage ensures the final product matches your vision perfectly. Any revisions will be discussed and finalized before moving forward. This phase typically takes 1 to 2 weeks.

Next is the manufacturing and production stage. This is the most intensive part of the process. It involves sourcing materials, fabricating the metal cabinet, assembling the electrical components, and installing the software. For standard customizations, this usually requires 2 to 6 weeks. More complex designs with unique shapes, advanced electronics, or specialized branding will naturally extend this period.

Finally, we have quality control and shipping. Before any machine leaves our factory, it undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it operates flawlessly and meets all safety standards. After passing inspection, the crane machine is carefully packaged and prepared for shipment. The shipping duration depends on your location and the chosen method, often adding 1 to 4 weeks to the total lead time. For a more accurate estimate, it's best to consult directly with our sales team with your specific project details.
