Oxy-fuel cutting from STEP file to machine-calibrated price
Glintify recognises oxy-fuel cut parts from material type (carbon steel) and thickness. The system calculates cutting time from your torch speeds, preheat times and number of active torches on your machine. Gas consumption per metre of cut edge is included at current gas prices. Dross removal is added by default unless configured out.
What Glintify reads from the STEP file
The system analyzes the part's geometry and extracts every manufacturing-relevant feature without manual input.
Contours, piercings, thickness, number of torches, bevel angle
What is calculated automatically
All measurements are extracted directly from the geometry, no manual input needed.
Machine parameters that are calibrated
Every parameter is set from your actual machine fleet, not industry averages.
How the price is built up
Glintify builds the part cost line by line from your machine data and pricing library.
DFM and capacity rules
The system automatically checks whether the part fits within your capacity and flags designs that can cause production issues.
Example cost breakdown
Line-by-line breakdown of the part cost using your machine data and prices.
| Cost item | Amount |
|---|---|
| Material S355J2 40mm | SEK 680.00 |
| Cutting time 1.2 m (1 torch) | SEK 96.00 |
| Preheat piercing × 6 | SEK 18.00 |
| Gas (acetylene + oxygen) | SEK 24.50 |
| Dross & deburring | SEK 12.00 |
| Total part cost | SEK 830.50 |
The same routing line as in Monitor
On top of our time-based calculation, oxy-fuel cutting 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 line | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Production group | Fetched from your ERP system or created from the machine park |
| Setup time | Per batch, not per piece — spread over the quantity |
| Cycle time | The technical time per piece, calculated from the geometry |
| F-time % | Allowance on top of the cycle time |
| Piece time | Cycle time × (1 + F-time %) |
| Cost factors | Machine, wages + social charges and fixed manufacturing overhead in SEK/h, with a staffing factor |
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.
