"The EXSO system has improved the process of building offers for customers. Thanks to the application, accurate cost calculations are created, and extensive 3D printouts and visualisations of products are generated. Its further development has allowed us to integrate quoting with production, which has streamlined and organised the work of this department."

about the project

We have built a complete system to support the sale and production of technical brushes

The company Czystość-Szczotki Techniczne has been manufacturing and regenerating technical brushes since 1998. The company's offer includes, among others, disc, strip, roller or rotary brushes.

The aim of our project was to develop and implement a system that would enable quick and comprehensive sales service: from registering a potential customer, through pricing works and sending an offer with a graphically presented brush, generating a technical drawing for the needs of production, to tracking the realisation of the order and easy invoicing thanks to integration with the existing accounting system.

The system implemented in Czystość-Szczotki Techniczne contains modules that facilitate customer service and allow comprehensive registration of each event - from the moment of creating an individual offer to shipment of the finished product.

Process

Even relatively simple projects require a systematic approach to their implementation

step 1
Analytical workshop

We try our best to understand your key needs and share our experience.

step 3
Prototype

We launch a test system as soon as possible to collect feedback and train users.

step 2
Implementation

We configure the solution, extend it with dedicated functionalities and feed it with data.

step 4
Integration

We build interfaces with other systems and ensure the continuity of our solution.

challenges

Precise visualisation of 3D objects and integration into advanced CNC machines

The biggest challenge in this project was to generate 3D visualisations for different types of brushes, depending on the given parameters. The number of combinations of input data, affecting the spatial layout of the product, greatly complicated the generation of an object that should be presentable within a few seconds.

An additional technical issue was the generation of precise technical views with dimensioning. These projections are part of the printout of the offer for the customer and the basis for the technical documentation for production.

Another challenge was the integration with CNC machines, which required a batch file containing the position diagram of the holes to be drilled in DXF format. In order to do this, it was necessary to implement a mechanism for mapping the 3D object to the 2D drawing of the holes.

Generating a 3D visualisation of a brush product containing up to 10,000 bristle filaments together with a DXF format drawing now takes only a few seconds and is handled online in a web browser.

Digitalisation of sales and production processes

The solution was built based on the EXSO+ platform, extended with the necessary mechanisms related to offer and production management. The Three.js library was used to generate 3D objects.

EXSO+ platform modules used in the project:

EXSO-CORE
EXSO-BPO
EXSO-COM
EXSO-SAL

solutions

Technical specification of complex products for production automation

The configurator of technical brushes is a tool that allows you to enter many of parameters, such as length, width, shape, type, diameter, density, distribution, or bristle hardness, and then to price the finished product.

The programme checks the conformity of the brush design with the actual possibility of its production. When all parameters are correctly completed, it creates a 3D model presenting the brush and a technical drawing in DXF format with the location of holes on the brush, which is used in the production process to drill them.

The configurator has automated the sales process to such an extent that the moment the customer confirms the offer, it is enough to upload the file generated by the configurator to the machine and start producing the ordered item.
