DXF COST ESTIMATION

Turn DXF data into a direct input for your costing workflow.

A DXF file carries the part geometry used in laser cutting quotations. GEZFORM brings this technical data directly into the costing workflow to reduce repetitive manual measurement and data-transfer steps.

Why can DXF-based costing create manual workload?

In a conventional workflow, the DXF is opened in a separate CAD or nesting environment, the geometry is checked, and relevant information is then transferred into another costing table. This can require the same data to be handled multiple times.

As the number of files increases, repeated measurement, transfer and calculation steps create additional workload and increase the risk of manual-entry errors.

A shorter path from DXF to cost result

GEZFORM uses DXF laser cutting data directly as an input to the costing workflow. Part geometry, the technical drawing and defined production parameters are evaluated together.

This reduces the number of manual steps between DXF review and the cost result. The final result can then be reported in Excel format.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why is a DXF file important in cost estimation?

DXF contains the part geometry used in laser cutting, making it an important technical input for preliminary costing.

Can a PDF technical drawing also be added?

Yes. The technical drawing can be evaluated together with DXF data in the same part workflow.

Can DXF-based cost results be exported to Excel?

Yes. Calculated results can be transferred into a structured Excel template.
