Problem
Small and medium‑size manufacturers often rely on manual quoting processes for CNC machining, which are time‑consuming, prone to calculation errors, and disconnected from online sales channels. This delays order intake and hampers the ability of engineering teams to evaluate design feasibility quickly.
Solution
Automatik’s Meksys platform delivers instant, algorithm‑driven cost and lead‑time estimates for CNC turning and milling operations. The SaaS engine pulls real‑time data on material prices, machine availability, and tooling wear to generate accurate quotations that can be embedded via API or iframe on a supplier’s website or used internally through a web portal. Results are presented in a standardized PDF or JSON payload, enabling seamless integration with ERP or CRM systems. In addition to the quoting tool, Automatik offers on‑demand CNC part production, rapid additive prototyping, 3D CAD modeling, and custom CAD/CAM post‑processor development, providing a full digital manufacturing workflow for SMEs seeking to accelerate product development and reduce manual overhead.
Target Audience
Primary customers are SMEs in the metal‑working and plastics sectors, product design studios, and engineering consultancies that need fast, reliable CNC quotations and an integrated digital manufacturing pipeline.
Features
- Cloud‑hosted estimation engine that combines material cost tables, machine‑specific cycle‑time models, and tooling depreciation to compute total job cost in seconds
- RESTful API and embeddable iframe widget for instant integration with corporate websites, e‑commerce platforms, or internal quoting portals
- Real‑time machine‑capacity scheduler that flags bottlenecks and suggests optimal machining strategies (turning vs. milling, multi‑axis vs. 2‑axis)
- Automated generation of CNC program code via built‑in CAD/CAM module supporting standard G‑code, post‑processors for Haas, DMG, and Fanuc controllers
- Rapid prototyping service using PLA, ABS, and PETG with automated STL validation and build‑time estimation
- Professional 3D modeling service that converts 2D drawings or sketches into watertight CAD models ready for simulation or machining
- Digital transformation consulting that maps existing production workflows, implements performance dashboards, and integrates Meksys with ERP/MES systems
