Configure 3D category
Precision machined components
Precision machined components covers general subcontract CNC machining: turned and milled parts made to a customer's drawing or model.
A custom machined part is too open-ended for a preset configurator, which is why none is planned. What works instead is a bespoke build around a machine shop's repeatable families: the parts you make again and again with different dimensions. If you quote the same shape weekly, that shape can be a configurator.
The buyer configures the dimensions, the rules hold your limits and your pricing builds the quote, so the repeat work orders itself while your estimators stay on the drawings that genuinely need them.
How it divides
The buyer configures. You stay in control.
A configurator moves the typing to the buyer and keeps every rule, rate and limit in the seller's hands.
What the buyer sets
- The family's parametric dimensions
- Material from your stock
- Finish and tolerance options you offer
- Quantity
What stays in your hands
- Which part families go online
- Engineering limits per family
- Rates, formulas and minimum order values
- Final review wherever you want it
What it covers
Example configurable products
- Repeatable turned part families (bushes, pins, spacers, flanges)
- Milled plates and manifolds with parametric features
- Modified standard components
Inside a configurator
From parameters to a dispatched order
One runtime carries every category: typed inputs, a cited AI, live 3D, a priced breakdown, manufacturing files and dispatch into your systems.
Parameters
Typed inputs with live rule checks
AI
Cites its source or abstains
3D model
Rebuilds as values change
Price
Line-by-line breakdown
Export
Manufacturing files and PDF
Dispatch
Into your ERP or CRM
Bespoke builds
Your product line on the same runtime
The four launch configurators and every bespoke build share one engine, so a new product inherits everything the live ones already prove.
- Tell us the product line
- What you make, the parameters that vary, the rules you check and how you price it. If it is dimensioned and quoted repeatedly, it fits.
- We build it on the live runtime
- Your configurator inherits live 3D, engineering rules, pricing formulas, cited AI answers, manufacturing exports and ERP or CRM dispatch from day one.
- Your customers configure and order
- On your own branded portal, against your stock and your rates, with every order landing in your systems.
Questions
About this category
- Why is there no preset configurator for machined parts?
- Because a custom machined part has no fixed parameter set: every shop's work is different. The bespoke build service turns your repeatable part families into configurators instead.
- What makes a part family a good configurator?
- You quote it repeatedly, its variation is dimensional rather than structural and its price follows rules you can state. Bushes, spacers, flanges and modified standards are typical fits.
