How does PP rapidly quote machining jobs?

Automated part file analysis provides information like setup count, process-specific feature detection (holes/pockets/3D machining), manufacturability warnings, and volume removal that drive costs and automated pricing for faster quoting. Rapidly quote a wide variety of complexities, from the simplest 3-axis parts, to the most complex multi-axis geometries requiring multiple setups and custom fixturing.

How does PP help Petit operate more efficiently?

PP can spot manufacturability issues before they cost you time and money. Paperless Parts analyzes geometric features like deep holes and pockets that may require special tooling. With 52 different manufacturability warnings for milling and turning, easily identify difficult or impossible features that add cost or complexity to the job. Customize manufacturability thresholds to your shop’s capabilities based on material, process, or workcenter to always catch critical issues. PP allows us to communicate securely within our team in the context of the parts we are working on directly in the platform. Highlight features or measurements on 3D models or prints to clearly identify what you are referencing. PP keeps all of our data in one centralized and searchable location.
