Configure to Order
The “Configure to Order” (CTO) process for industrial machine builders is a structured approach to design, manufacture and deliver customer-specific machines. The aim is to simplify the production of custom machines by using standardized components and processes.
To understand customer requirements, we are developing a user-friendly product configurator that enables customers to configure the machine according to their needs and preferences. The configurator must contain a wide range of options, such as machine size, power, functionalities, extra accessories, etc. This configurator can then be seamlessly implemented on your website as a sales configurator.
CTO processes offer the possibility to optimize the engineering process. With the right parametric rules and constraints, a large part of the engineering process for standard products can be automated. With our CTO implementation you can decide for yourself which part of the engineering process is automated.
You can use this implementation for your own production and inventory, as a sales configurator, or as a standard model generation tool to complement your existing model.
Every step in this process can be automated:
With a sales configurator implementation you generate a quotation in seconds. Using parametric models you can give customers full control over the design process. Underlying models then generate quotations (and/or) models that are immediately available to the customer.
With the CTO implementation that Twin-Tech Engineering offers, you save time in the engineering process, and you simplify your product archive, so that modular machine construction is within reach.
