INTELLIGENT ALGORITHMS

How does the material shop work

Through logical and intuitive linking of elements, you control your calculation. Material Shop follows the principle of a simple filter function with the aim of quickly and precisely calculating and configuring materials.

MATERIAL SHOP

Configure and calculate materials quickly and intuitively online

The material shop is the most intuitive solution on the market for materials with complex parameters. All options from cutting and processing to certificates can be realized. Prices are calculated instantly and customer-specific discounts, customer score, processing effort, shipping costs and much more are also taken into account. Prices can be displayed per piece and per kg.

All options and configurations are on one page. This reduces the number of clicks and reduces loading times enormously. The search and the filter system (coarse and fine filter) can be customized. In addition, alternative materials for the construction can be determined in a matter of seconds with the filter for material properties.

CUTTINGS

Cutting, processing and other helpful functions

All common cutting variants are available as standard along with fixed lengths without cutting (e.g. for precision steel) or whole bars, bar cuttings (e.g. with different possible length ranges and tolerances), plates and block cuttings.

At the Milling and grinding are available. In the background, consideration can be given to your machine park and technically complex issues (milling of a thin plate) can also be taken into account in a standardized calculation. Furthermore, special requests such as deep hole drilling or reading in step files are possible.

Offer additional options such as deburring, chamfering or material certificates 2.1 or 3.1.

MATERIAL SHOP INTEGRATION

Integration into your company

Each shop’s templates, texts and colors and of course the logo are adapted to your company’s branding and design. Use standard analysis tools such as Google Analytics, Mamoto or Heatmap Tracking or choose our special solutions developed for you.

Include your warehouse or specify the standard availability of the items. Specify which article should be available to customers online. Offer certain residual materials online that can no longer be sold otherwise. When it comes to calculations, we are specialists and help to standardize your calculations and replicate your requirements in the software. We integrate the software into your logistics or create direct connections to parcel service providers or freight forwarders. We can fall back on our comprehensive standard interface, which includes over 100 providers.

We integrate the shop perfectly into your ERP system. If you explicitly do not want this, the shop can also be delivered as a stand-alone solution and the internal area can be expanded. This can be helpful if the shop is to be connected later, e.g. if a connection to the ERP side would take too long or should be started as quickly and leanly as possible.

If you on our ERP “Automation Pro”, the connection of the shop is particularly easy – the same storage is used for files and database , which is beneficial for the consistency of the data and also greatly reduces the effort.
