Manufacturing processes in our calculation
The automatic calculation in our quoting software Spanflug MAKE covers a comprehensive technical spectrum in the field of turning, milling and grinding, as well as a number of post-treatments. The manufacturing know-how for the following processes is stored in the software as standard and can be used immediately without further configuration.
Turning
Turning parts up to a diameter of 1,000 mm and a length of 6,000 mm
Milling
Milling parts up to 6,000 mm x 2,000 mm x 350 mm
Grinding
External cylindrical and surface grinding
Flexible selection of stocks for quoting
Standard stocks
Our database includes more than 60 materials for stocks. These will be detected automatically during part analysis and calculation of machining times and costs. Spanflug MAKE uses real-time prices from stock suppliers connected to our platform technology. This allows you to calculate precise costs in line with the market, saves you time-consuming inquiries to stock suppliers before you can finalize your quote, and helps you to hit the calculated margins even when material prices fluctuate.
Near-net-shape stocks
You can select and upload individual near-net-shape geometries such as castings, laser parts or 3D printed preforms as stocks, and then calculate the turning, milling and grinding for them. In this way, Spanflug MAKE supports economical and resource-saving manufacturing.
Contour cuts
You can select contour cuts, such as laser, flame or water jet cuts, and use these as near-net-shape stocks for the calculation.
Include post-treatments in your quoting
Automatically recognized. Individually customizable.
Spanflug MAKE automatically recognizes the post-treatments of calculated parts during the part analysis. You can adjust these processes for post-treatments and finetune their processing times and costs at any time.
More than 30 post-treatments
More than 30 post-treatments are available for automated calculation in Spanflug MAKE. From powder coating to anodizing – the software calculates heat and surface treatments as well as coatings. They are added as seperate work steps in the calculation proposal and operational plan.
