Costimator Version 14 cost-estimating software has many new features including 3DFX, an automated feature recognition function. This add-on recognizes CAD features and their parameters from solid models and gives estimators complete control over features they “extract” and import into Costimator for estimating. This increases cost estimating speed and quoting throughput up to 90%, while dramatically improving cost estimating accuracy and consistency from part to part, estimator to estimator.
Other new features include enhanced cost models, new cost/profit report and SQL Server 2014 compatibility.
- Cost models include 46 models for processes such as lasercut, sandblast, panel saw, surface work, and welding, providing more estimating options
- Cost-profit summary report show multiple quantity cost and profit details for labor, purchased parts, outside services and raw materials
- New features: 3DFX, enhanced cost models, new cost/profit report and SQL Server 2014 compatibility
