Your customers open a link, change dimensions and options and see the result in 3D – on desktop, tablet or phone, without installing anything or creating an account. The enquiry you receive contains the exact configuration.
A public example for dealers of aluminium patio roofs. The same project serves as the configurator on the website and as the working basis in the sales meeting.
The customer configures the roof step by step:
Posts and rafters are distributed automatically. The customer never places a part.
A survey and permit check flags dimensions and loads that need clarification before a quote is made.
Questions that usually come up during the site visit are visible in the configurator already.
With “Request a quote” the visitor sends name, e-mail and a comment together with the configuration. The request arrives in your enquiry inbox and by e-mail.
With the shopping cart switched on, several configurations with quantities go out as one quote or order request.
In the publish dialog you decide what visitors see and may do:
The model behind it is the same one engineering works with.
Change dimensions, roofing and side walls and watch how the guide price and the checks react.
Many web configurators are a world of their own: images or 3D files prepared for each option, plus a price list maintained in parallel. In confBuild the configurator is the parametric model itself. The same rows that calculate posts and rafters drive the 3D view, the parts list and the guide price. When engineering changes a profile, the configurator changes with it.
Publishing is a dialog in the editor, not a web development project.
Define inputs with labels, units and limits and group them so customers find their way.
Choose a sidebar or floating panel, a design template, your colours and logo, and the start view.
Save configuration, request a quote, shopping cart with quantities, guide prices on or off.
Share the public link or embed it with an iframe. Requests arrive in the inbox and by e-mail.
The functions dealers and manufacturers ask about most.
Every configurator gets a public link. Embed it in your website, shop or customer portal with an iframe; URL parameters control the toolbar and the start view.
Show a guide price calculated in the Sheet. Visitors request a quote directly or collect several configurations with quantities in a shopping cart.
Sliders, selection lists and toggles in a sidebar or panel, with design templates and a drawer layout on phones.
Behind the configurator is the full parametric model: parts list, drawings, STEP export and assembly plan are available for every configuration.
Fewer back-and-forth e-mails, because the enquiry already contains what used to be asked on the phone.
Start with a product you quote often and turn its rules into a configurator your customers can use themselves.
