5-axis machining centre
A benchtop machine with a trunnion table: X, Y and Z, the A swivel and the C rotation can be driven live, the enclosure door opens, and both workpiece and tool follow the configuration.

Machine Assemblies You Can Open Right Now
Every assembly below is a parametric model with real geometry and running kinematics. Change the dimensions, start the motion, check the result.
Rotary filling and capping monobloc
A filling monobloc for bottled beverages: valve count, pitch circle and bottle format are parameters. Guarding and cladding can be removed, and the filling and capping cycle runs station by station.
Open example
Bottle labelling machine
A self-adhesive labeller on a hinged-belt conveyor. Bottle format, label height and belt length are parameters; guarding and control cabinet can be switched off, and the labelling cycle runs as an animation.
Open example
E-MTB mid-drive with eCVT
A power-split planetary set acting as a continuously variable gearbox: cadence and MG1 speed set the ratio. The housing can be shown as a section model and the unit driven into an exploded view.
Open example
Bevel gear differential
Pinion, crown wheel, spider gears and side gears as complete kinematics: straight running, cornering with an adjustable speed split and a blocked wheel all run as animations.

Capabilities
Model the rules
Capture dimensions, allowed combinations, interfaces, and manufacturing constraints once.
Validate the result
Keep configurations inside structural, geometric, and commercial boundaries.
Hand off cleanly
Export geometry, BOM, drawings, and quote data from the same configuration.
Engineering configurators that stay connected to production
Engineering teams need more than a visual model. confBuild keeps machine logic, constraints, validation, quoting, and export data connected so every configured result can move forward.
One loop from configuration to manufacturing
Define reusable engineering logic, let teams configure safely, and hand off structured outputs without recreating the model.
-
01
Define constraints
Set rules for assemblies, dimensions, compatibility, and options.
-
02
Configure in 3D
Let sales or engineering teams explore valid machine and part variants.
-
03
Validate and price
Check the result against logic, BOM, cost, and export requirements.
-
04
Release outputs
Generate CAD, drawings, BOM, quote documents, and ERP-ready data.
Handoff
One approved state
Dimensions, options, constraints, and cost drivers stay attached to the chosen variant.
Production-ready files
CAD, drawing inputs, BOM rows, and quote data leave from the same configuration.
Less rework
Engineering reviews a structured package instead of rebuilding the request from notes.
Turn configured machines into release packages
The same model that sales edits can carry engineering rules, BOM logic, CAD exports, and quote context into the next decision.
Capabilities
Engineering Rules That Survive Handoff
Capture the product logic once, then use it for sales configuration, engineering review, quoting, and manufacturing exports.
Parametric Assembly Logic
Define dimensions, interfaces, option dependencies, and part relationships so every configured machine or component remains inside the rules your engineers approve.
- Formula-driven dimensions
- Compatibility checks
- Reusable assembly modules
Validation Before Release
Keep structural assumptions, clearances, selected materials, and commercial boundaries visible while the model is still being configured.
- FEM-ready context
- Clearance and fit checks
- Variant comparison
Connected BOM and Pricing
Tie parts, quantities, supplier items, cost drivers, and selected options to the configured state instead of rebuilding the quote from screenshots.
- Flat or nested BOMs
- Quote inputs
- ERP-ready structure
CAD and Drawing Outputs
Generate CAD geometry, drawing inputs, and technical documentation from the same approved variant used during configuration.
- B-Rep STEP, STL, DXF
- Drawing context
- Manufacturing metadata
Engineering outputs without rebuilding
Each configured result carries the logic and data needed for the next team.
CAD-ready geometry
B-Rep STEP files, STL, DXF, and viewer-ready models generated from the selected variant for manufacturing handoff.
Generated technical BOM
Flat or nested parts lists with quantities, options, identifiers, materials, and cut-list context.
Quote package
Pricing inputs, selected options, and customer-facing PDF outputs.
Drawing data
Dimensioned views and documentation paths for engineering handoff.
Best fit
- Machine builders with repeated assemblies and options
- Sales engineering teams that need safe self-service configuration
- Manufacturers that need CAD, BOM, pricing, and drawings from one model
