Quotation: AI part costing from a drawing
See live at S150e how a part is costed in minutes: drawing in, route planned, every operation priced.
Quotation is the flagship product from Cambridge Advanced Systems. It turns a 2D drawing or 3D model into a priced quote that your estimator can check and defend.
How it works:
1. Upload a PDF drawing or a STEP/CAD file.
2. CAS reads the part and builds a part model.
3. It plans the manufacturing route and every operation.
4. It prices each operation with your own machines, rates and rules, and adds tooling and outside services.
5. Your estimator reviews the assumptions, and every correction is saved for the next quote.
Every number opens up to show its calculation, so nothing is a black box.
Processes covered: CNC machining, sheet-metal cutting and bending, stamping, deep drawing, wire, rod and tube forming, injection moulding, die casting, sand and investment casting, forging, welded assemblies and 3D printing.
At Advanced Engineering 2026, come to pod S150e to see live how a part is costed in minutes.
