Intuitive quote generation
Generate quotes directly from sheet metal part files. Upload the geometry and the system automatically creates a manufacturing cost estimate, reducing manual calculations and spreadsheet-based quoting processes.
Automatic geometry analysis
Lantek iQuoting analyzes the actual geometry of each part, including contours, cutting lengths, internal areas, and geometric complexity. This allows more accurate cost estimation than rule-based or visual quoting methods while helping identify possible design issues before production.
Import assistant
The integrated import assistant previews geometry before generating the quote. The system detects layers, contours, technologies, open lines, duplicate geometries, and unnecessary entities so users can validate manufacturing data from the beginning.
Material cost calculation
The platform calculates raw material costs automatically according to the selected material type, thickness, and manufacturing process.
Material databases and price lists can be configured by thickness and material family to maintain pricing consistency across all quotes.
Cutting time estimation
Based on part geometry and machine technology, the system estimates machine runtime and manufacturing costs without requiring full production simulations. This improves quote accuracy for laser cutting, plasma cutting, oxy-fuel cutting, waterjet cutting, and punching processes.
Cloud nesting for quoting
Lantek iQuoting can calculate quotes using cloud-based nesting simulations based on actual CAD/CAM machine configurations and cutting parameters.
This allows material utilization and scrap estimation to reflect real manufacturing conditions.
Flexible calculation parameters
Users can configure hourly rates, margins, pricing rules, and calculation criteria according to their manufacturing and commercial requirements. The platform also includes the KAI calculation engine for advanced cost estimation.
Guided workflow
The quoting workflow is structured step by step, making it suitable for commercial and technical users without advanced CAD/CAM experience. This reduces dependency on highly specialized personnel during the quoting process.
Consistent and repeatable quotes
By applying predefined rules and manufacturing parameters, Lantek iQuoting maintains consistency between similar quotes and reduces pricing deviations across different sales opportunities.
100% online platform
The software runs directly in a web browser with no installation required. Users can access the system from any connected device while reducing IT maintenance and deployment requirements.
Subscription-based access
The subscription model removes the need for large initial investments and allows manufacturers to scale usage according to operational and commercial needs.
