Create your own Product Configurator ** NO API required ** ( |
|
|
LS,
I've created a program to create a product configurator without any API
knowledge. You can simply select predefined steps from a list and store
them in a featuremanager-like tree structure.
This shareware version provides full functionality and has no time
limit. The only limitation is that only seven steps can be recorded and
played back.
To get all desired information into the program (like dimension names,
file locations etc...) you'd best open the files in SolidWorks and get
the information by clicking on a button.
After creating a list of steps that have to be performed by the program
(make this with the Recorder), you can execute this configurator with
another program, the Player. The Recorder can be used to create the
configurator (you have to make this once and you can edit it
afterwards) and the Player to perform all steps that are in the
configurator.
SolidWorks macro can also be run by the program, so custom made
functionality can also be used.
There's a low-quality screenshot available at:

I'm looking forward to your opinion and your feedback. I'm still
working on a manual, which will be available on my website within a few
weeks.
Kind regards,

Sounds like a potentially good seller, although I have no personal need
for it (at least yet). How much do you plan to charge for the unlimited
steps application?

Hello Sporky/All,
The idea behind this program is to make companies less dependent and
more flexible concerning product configurators. If companies use
product configurators, they are depending on the companies that created
the configurator if they want to change something. This program enables
companies to create and edit/change their own configurators. This will
save a lot of money.
I don't know if you have downloaded the shareware version, but the full
version only costs € 500,- (US $ 600,-). Subscription costs € 100,-
(US $ 125,-) per year. The shareware version is for free! The only
limitation is that only seven steps can be saved and/or played back.
If you know a company that may be intersested, please inform about the
profit YOU can make once they but a licence.
Kind regards,
Jan Jurjen Zwaard
