Assembly, fixture, packaging

    Assembly

    Glintify analyses the assembly's constituent parts and suggests assembly steps based on geometry and fit conditions. Screw joints are detected by position and dimension, torque tightening (torque + angle) is calculated per joint. Press fits are identified from tolerance data. Fixture and packaging cost is added per product.

    // Detection

    What Glintify detects

    The system analyzes the part's geometry and extracts every manufacturing-relevant feature without manual input.

    Extracted data

    Number of parts, fit conditions, screw joints, fixture requirements

    // Automation

    What is calculated automatically

    All measurements are extracted directly from the geometry.

    Number of parts in the assembly
    Number of screw joints per type
    Number of press fits
    Total weight and volume
    // Quality

    Quality rules

    The system automatically checks whether the part fits within your capacity and flags designs that can cause production issues.

    Press fit with excessive interference → material damage
    Screw joint without torque spec → risk
    Parts with identical geometry → mix-up risk
    Electrical function test required → added separately
    // Setup

    Typical setup

    What a typical setup looks like for this operation.

    Fixture per product family
    Assembly instruction per station
    Component picking per order

    Cost example

    Line-by-line breakdown of the part cost using your machine data and prices.

    Cost itemAmount
    Assembly 6 parts (screw joints)SEK 28.00
    Fixture (amortised 500 pcs)SEK 2.00
    Press fit ×2SEK 4.00
    Packaging (box + pallet)SEK 11.50
    Total assembly cost per productSEK 45.50

    The same routing line as in Monitor

    On top of our time-based calculation, assembly is also costed as a routing line ("beredningsrad") in Monitor's format: production group (work center), setup time, cycle time, allowance (F-time) and piece time, priced with the production group's cost factors. The line can be exported as an article with routing straight to your ERP system.

    Routing lineExplanation
    Production groupFetched from your ERP system or created from the machine park
    Setup timePer batch, not per piece — spread over the quantity
    Cycle timeThe technical time per piece, calculated from the geometry
    F-time %Allowance on top of the cycle time
    Piece timeCycle time × (1 + F-time %)
    Cost factorsMachine, wages + social charges and fixed manufacturing overhead in SEK/h, with a staffing factor
    Cost = setup time × rate + piece time × rate × quantity

    Markups for MO (material overhead), LO (subcontracting overhead), AFFO (general overhead) and profit are added at quote level — exactly as in Monitor's pre-calculation.
