# Wire and tube quoting that counts the bends

You have had the call where the wire forms come back unrecognised and the quote never happens. Customiser reads the drawing and builds the bill of materials.

## Where time is lost

### Bends counted by hand.

Every form and radius, off a printed drawing.

### Platforms that cannot read your parts.

Tools that only price flat patterns come back empty on formed wire and tube parts.

### Mixed assemblies.

Wire, tube, plate, hardware and finishing in one part, priced in four places.

### Two lanes, one deadline.

Domestic and import paths need different maths and both are due at once.

## What Customiser reads

### Bend counts from the drawing.

Bend tables, bend notes and dimensioned views, read line by line.

### Radii and cut lengths.

Every bend carries its radius, every run its length.

### Hole schedules.

Diameters, counts and wall counts on flat and tube components.

### Hardware detection.

Fasteners, weld nuts, rivets and bought in parts counted.

### One pass, whole assembly.

Formed parts, plate, tube and hardware in one BOM.

## Frequently asked questions

### How accurate are the bend counts?

Bends are read from what the drawing states: the bend table, the bend notes and the dimensioned views. Every count is shown next to the line of the drawing it came from.

### What if the drawing has no bend table?

The bends are then read from the dimensioned views and the bend notes. Anything the drawing leaves ambiguous is flagged for a person rather than guessed.

### Do you handle mixed fabrication?

Yes. Wire, tube and flat components in one assembly come back as one BOM.
