SHEET METAL COST ESTIMATION

Bring sheet metal preliminary costing into one structured workflow.

Sheet metal quotations require multiple cost components such as material, laser cutting and press brake bending to be combined into one result. GEZFORM turns this fragmented process into a more structured costing workflow.

Why does sheet metal costing become fragmented?

The total preliminary cost of a part is not determined by cutting time alone. Material, sheet thickness, part geometry, cutting operations, bending operations and company-specific parameters need to be considered together.

When these inputs are calculated across different spreadsheets or user-specific methods, quotation preparation can slow down and similar jobs can produce inconsistent results.

From technical data to total cost

GEZFORM brings DXF, technical drawings, material and production parameters into the same job. Core sheet metal operations such as laser cutting and press brake bending are evaluated within one costing structure.

The results can be exported to Excel with material, operation and total cost breakdowns, helping quotation teams work faster and use a more standardized calculation method.
