Visual CPQ for machine builders & line integrators

Stop quoting lines by hand. Let the customer lay it out.

Your customer plans the production cell in the browser; the system checks collisions, simulates throughput and returns a priced bill of materials. The code is yours.

Why it exists

Quoting a line takes weeks. Meanwhile the customer asks a competitor.

Every enquiry goes back to engineering for a drawing, an equipment list and a cost estimate. Visual CPQ moves the first pass to the customer, inside guardrails you define, so a complete and buildable spec arrives instead of "how much does it cost".

Lay out the cell

The customer assembles a cell from conveyors, a robot and a case packer out of your catalogue of real equipment, in real-time 3D in the browser.

Collision & safety validation

The layout is checked for collisions and safety-zone clearances as it is built, so an impossible or unsafe configuration cannot be submitted.

Throughput simulation

A simulation shows the expected throughput and the bottleneck, so the customer sizes the line correctly before anyone draws a thing.

Priced bill of materials

The finished layout returns a bill of materials priced to your rules, plus an engineering-review request. A starting point, not an empty inbox.

Live demonstrator

Factory3D, running in the browser

This is my own demonstrator, built so the mechanics stop being a promise. Open it, drop in conveyors, a robot and a packer, watch the collision checks fire, run the throughput and read the priced bill of materials. No sign-up.

Investment

What a visual CPQ system costs.

A fixed price after a scoping call, not a range with a hidden "from". One-off, no subscription, the code is yours.

Configurable cell

from €40,000

A cell configurator with collision and safety checks, a throughput simulation and a priced bill of materials, wired into your quoting flow.

Multi-line platform

€60,000 to €120,000+

Multiple line types or plants, deep ERP and PLM integration, an operator console and custom engineering logic.

For reference: enterprise CPQ and industrial configurators routinely run past €100,000 in licences and integration, year after year. A one-off build you own removes the recurring licence entirely. Full custom-vs-SaaS breakdown on the main configurator page.

Questions buyers ask first.

What does visual CPQ do for a machine builder? +

Quoting a production line normally takes weeks, because every enquiry goes back to engineering for a drawing, an equipment list and a cost estimate, while the customer asks a competitor. Visual CPQ lets the customer lay out the cell themselves in the browser, validates it, and returns a complete specification with a priced bill of materials. Engineering gets a starting point, not an empty enquiry.

How much does it cost? +

From €40,000 for a configurable cell with collision checks, a throughput simulation and a priced bill of materials. Larger multi-line or multi-plant systems with deep ERP and PLM integration run higher. A fixed price after a scoping call. The code is yours, no subscription.

Can it validate collisions and safety zones? +

Yes. The layout is checked for collisions and safety-zone clearances as the customer places equipment, so an impossible or unsafe configuration cannot be submitted. A throughput simulation shows the bottleneck, and the bill of materials is priced to your rules.

Does it connect to our ERP and PLM? +

Yes. The priced configuration and bill of materials flow into SAP, a custom ERP, a PLM or your CRM, so the quote and the order carry a full, validated spec. The code is yours and runs on your infrastructure in the EU.
