COMPLETE RFQ FLOW
Six steps, from import to prepared quote for approval
Analysis
Geometry, drawing, material, tolerances, and missing information.
Process plan
Machine, setups, orientations, tools and candidate strategies.
Calculation
Time, semifinished product, consumptions, external operations, and cost.
Control
Risks, contradictions, level of confidence, and validation points.
Delivery
Documented quote, export, and production preparation information.
TECHNICAL CONTEXT DECISIONS
The estimate shows both the calculated value and the uncertainty.
QuantCAD can separate the central P50 scenario from the prudent variants P80 and P95. These intervals describe the uncertainty of the data and the process; they do not represent a contractual guarantee. The technologist retains control over the final validation.
Controlled Learning
STEP models can be associated with NC programs and measured times. Local memory is updated only after explicit confirmation of real data.
Calibration with real factory data
History is segmented by process, material and machine. Outliers are constrained, and reference records can be audited or withdrawn.
Pilot with measurable criteria
Implementation can begin with 20-30 representative references, compared with NC programs and real times before commercial rules are approved.
Client-delivered version, modules, and configuration capabilities are confirmed.

EXPLAINABLE CNC QUOTING
From customer files to a verifiable technical quote
QuantCAD Hybrid Industrial is a desktop application for CNC shops and quoting teams that receive references in STEP, PDF drawings, and distributed technical requirements across multiple documents. The system gathers information in a single local flow, maintains the link between technical proofs and commercial calculations, and shows the hypotheses used for each reference.
The application does not treat the quote as just a final price. It builds a technical dossier where geometry, material, tolerances, tools, fixtures, operations, estimated time, and risks can be reviewed before the team approves the pricing.
Unified technical file
Automatically associates STEP/STP files with PDF drawings, maintains the revision and source of each document, and highlights missing, duplicate, or ambiguous associations.
Verifiable process analysis
Extracts geometric features, reads relevant information from the drawing, and marks contradictions between the 3D model and the manufacturing intent described in the PDF.
Machine, tools and strategy
Compares part dimensions and orientation with tool envelope, verifies fixture access, and correlates material, fixture catalog, and company-approved technological rules.
Operation-by-operation time breakdown
Separates cutting, rapid moves, entry and exit, fixture changes, indexing, and auxiliary activities. The estimate remains visible and can be compared with actual production time.
Transparent Costing
Gathers semifinished products, programming, setup, cycle time, tool and operator rates, energy, fixtures, external operations, control, scrap, yield, risk, and margin.
Local AI with data kept inside the factory
OCR, STEP analysis, databases, and AI assistant run locally. The described flow does not require an API key and does not implicitly send technical documents to cloud services.

Verify the system
Windows 10/11 x64, minimum 16 GB RAM and the required free space of the kit. For large batches, 32 GB RAM and SSD storage are recommended.
Prepare the kit
Use the files provided by DINAMIC PRO EA, keep the kit volumes together, and verify their integrity before installation.
Install the application
Launch the installer, accept the usage agreement, and choose the installation folder. Do not move or rename kit volumes during installation.
Activate the license
Import the license file .qlic issued for the authorized device. Licenses for multiple stations are activated separately on each computer.
Check the first launch
Confirm access to projects, STEP/PDF visualization, and local module startup. The memory profile adapts to the available configuration.
Work offline
After activation, the local quoting and viewing workflow requires neither a permanent internet connection nor an external API key.
Interface, kit size, and exact steps may vary between versions. Follow the included installation instructions and seek assistance if activation does not recognize the authorized computer.
FOR THE WORKSHOP AND OFFERING TEAM
When every milestone must be checked before bidding
The factory receives drawings, 3D models and sometimes incomplete requirements. The estimator needs a coherent file for each milestone. QuantCAD-Hybrid organizes milestones, correlates files, flags missing documents, proposes the process, and prepares the batch for calculation.
CNC workshops
Milling and turning, unique pieces and small series.
Bidding teams
Batches with STEP, PDF and quality requirements to be analyzed together.
Management
Cost, risk and traceability before tender approval.
The goal: fewer omissions before the firm offer and a clear link between technical analysis and quotation.
LIBRARY OF MARKETS AND REAL TIMES
Production experience, benchmark for future offers
The STEP library is used to have a benchmark and a basis of comparison for future offers. Models and real times from production history provide context for estimating new parts.
Import capacity and limits
| Elements | Limit / behavior |
|---|---|
| STEP files per import | Maximum 499,999 STEP files. At 500,000, the selection is rejected. |
| Size per STEP file | Maximum 100MB. |
| Excel / CSV with real times | Maximum 100MB. |
| SQLite database | It does not have a fixed milestone limit implemented; the real limit is available disk space. |
| Reimport of the same landmark | If the identity is the same, the record is updated, without unnecessary duplication. |
Recommended batches in practice
- 1,000–5,000 STEPS on normal computers;
- 5,000–20,000 STEPS on performing stations;
- Smaller batches for very complex designs or close to 100MB.
The "15 saved examples" in the library capture represents the number of records that exist at that time, not the limit of the library. The 500,000 threshold is a theoretical limit per selection, not a guaranteed capacity on any PC; the maximum accepted is 499,999.
Processing is sequential to avoid filling RAM.
DYNAMIC TIME INTELLIGENCE
From track history to informed estimates
The proposed flow for DYNAMIC Time Intelligence starts from a button that would open a window independent of the main program, dedicated to STEP import and manufacturing history.
Import STEP
- Selecting an individual STEP file;
- Selecting a folder with 1,000 / 10,000 / 100,000+ STEP files, within the technical limits per import;
- Automatic recursive scanning of folders;
- Automatic association by landmark name.
Excel history import
The proposed basic structure maintains four columns:
| A | B | C | d |
|---|---|---|---|
| landmark | Programming time | Real time machine | Material |
Optionally, the history can be extended with the following information:
| Column | Information |
|---|---|
| E | Car |
| F | No. in pieces |
| G | Setup |
| H | No. catching |
| and | No. operations |
| J | Actual measured time |
| K | Observations |
| Additional columns | Consumables (drills, cutters, etc.) and price per piece |
The more relevant and accurate production information is entered, the more accurately the engine can base its estimates.
What the engine would "learn" from each STEP
The proposed analysis is not limited to the volume of the piece. For each STEP, the engine would extract a "Geometric DNA", with an extensive set of potentially several hundred parameters:
- Bounding box X / Y / Z;
- Volume and area;
- Semi-finished product / part ratio;
- Volume of material removed;
- Percentage of material removed;
- Number of faces;
- Flat, cylindrical and conical faces;
- Holes, diameters and depths;
- L / D ratio;
- Plugged and pierced holes;
- Bores;
- Threads, where they can be determined;
- Open and closed pockets;
- Slots and channels;
- Radius and chamfers;
- 3D surfaces;
- Undercuts;
- Thin walls;
- Maximum depths;
- Accessibility of the tool;
- Guidelines required;
- Probable number of setups;
- 3 axes vs. 3+2 vs. 4 axes vs. 5 axes;
- Geometric complexity;
- Surface / volume ratio;
- Symmetry;
- Similarity to historical pieces.
Comparison with already executed pieces
In a new offering, the engine would combine geometric analysis with the times of similar benchmarks already executed. The estimate would thus go beyond a simple relationship of the type "Volume = X → 73 minutes".
Illustrative comparison example for a new STEP:
| Historical landmark | LIKE | appointment | Car time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18432 | 87,4% | 42 min | 116 min |
| 19771 | 82,1% | 38 min | 108 min |
| 20554 | 79,8% | 47 min | 121 min |
Combining these comparisons with geometric analysis, the result might be:
Estimated schedule43 min
Estimated car time114 min
Probable range107–121 min
Confidence level94%
The values above illustrate the proposed result; is not a guaranteed measurement or accuracy.
An estimate accompanied by comparable parts, a probable range, and a confidence level provides more context for bidding than a single time value.
01 · RFQ WORKSPACE
Multiple milestones in one stream
- Simultaneous import of STEP/STP and PDF files.
- Associate documents by base file name.
- Check for missing documents and risk.
- Individual benchmark analysis and batch preparation for calculation.
- Selection of benchmarks for export and batch analysis.
The process begins with the association of documents and continues with the analysis of each milestone. Technical information remains linked to the commercial quotation.
02 · SETUP VIEW
Individual sheet and 3D model for each landmark
When selecting a landmark, the operator opens a separate sheet with the 3D model, dimensions, associated documents, risk and view modes. The sheet helps with quick lot review and technical clarifications prior to quotation.
03 · MASTER COSTING
Transparent and editable industrial calculation per landmark
The estimator adapts times, rates, material, external operations, and margin to machinery and factory rules. The cost sheet remains editable and the analysis is not limited to a final total.
| Component | Calculation parameters |
|---|---|
| Training | Programming and setting |
| Execution | Cycle time, machine and operator |
| Acquisitions and Operations | Material, tools, supplies and external operations |
| Quality and financial control | Control, rejection, direction and margin |
04 · MATERIALS AND SEMI-FABRICATED PRODUCTS
From blank to weight and material cost
- Local material library, searchable by code, name or group.
- X × Y × Z dimensions of the semi-finished product, modifiable on the reference.
- Weight calculated in kg/piece from volume and density.
- The unit cost of the material, expressed in EUR/kg, editable for the current offer.
The purchase price and availability of the material is confirmed with the supplier before the final quotation is issued.
05 · PROJECTS AND REVISIONS
Business continuity and reusable parameters
After the calculation, the team can save the project, go back on a batch, reset the current batch, add new benchmarks and start a new analysis. The batch remains editable before the quotation is issued.
Cost sheets support historical tracking and reuse of checked parameters. The feed reduces the risk of losing the data of an already revised quote.
06 · DESKTOP IMPLEMENTATION
Client licensed and usable offline
The customer installs the desktop application and activates the license on the authorized device. For everyday use, the application does not require a server login. RFQ data and analysis rules remain in the customer's local environment.
The local copilot uses RFQ rules, proofs, and context, with no external API key.
The license binds to the device through the file .qlic and can be issued for a fixed or perpetual period.
