Engineering QA & costing for steel fabricators
ENRIVIA reads your 3D model, recognises every profile and plate, checks it against the BOM, draws the workshop sheets and prices the job — before a single cut is made.
The problem
Someone counts profiles, lengths and plates from drawings — and types them into a spreadsheet.
The cut list says 4 pieces, the model has 3. Nobody notices until the parts are already cut.
Cutting, drilling, welding and coating are estimated by feel instead of measured from the model.

A demo mezzanine platform, measured by ENRIVIA exactly as it would measure yours: every profile, length and mass, the BOM check and the change between two revisions.

What ENRIVIA does
Sections, lengths, masses and holes are read from the geometry and matched to the EN profile catalogue: HEA, IPE, SHS, CHS, angles and plates.
Click a tube, an edge or a hole and get exact CAD dimensions — diameter, length, distance, angle. Anyone in the office can check a model without a CAD seat.
Upload the cut list from Excel or SOLIDWORKS. Every mismatch is named: which part, what the BOM says and what the model actually contains.
Material, scrap, sawing, drilling, laser, press brake, welding and painting are calculated operation by operation from the model — with your price list, norms and hourly rates. Send a clean PDF to the client in English, German or Bosnian.
A customer sends ten DXF files and asks for a price. Drop them in — quantity and thickness are read straight from the file names, the parts are nested by shape and the laser time is calculated. Price per part in seconds, by the same rules as your assembly quotes.
Upload the next version of the same model. ENRIVIA lists every changed, added and removed position — with old and new length, quantity and weight.
Tick ten STEP files and see at once which ones are the same — and which one is different, with the closest match and what differs.
New · Simulation
Every animation is driven by the measured model: the parts the laser cuts, the order of the bends, the passes of a weld and the coats of paint. What you see is what the quote is charging for.
Parts are nested by their real outline — flanges in a honeycomb, stiffeners turned into each other. The head cuts holes first, then the outline, and every metre and pierce goes into the price.
The flat blank comes from the model, the bends run in order and the force is checked against your press — before the part is cut.
Drawings
Rotate the model, pin the assembly front view — every sheet follows it. Assembly with item balloons, weld schedule, plate cutting contours, sections and details.

Standards
Drawings and quotes follow the European rules for steel fabrication — not a house style you have to explain.
Execution class on every drawing and quote; bolt hole clearances by bolt size.
Weld quality level taken from the execution class, written in the weld note.
Weld symbols with arrow and other side, field welds and seam length.
Hole positions as running dimensions from one datum — how the shop marks out.
Every hole checked for edge distance; too close to the edge is flagged on the sheet.
Hollow sections without vent holes are flagged before hot-dip galvanizing.
Paint systems by corrosivity class, priced by the measured surface.
First-angle projection symbol, A-series sheets with frame and centring marks.
How it works
Drop the file into the project. The analysis starts on its own.
Profiles, masses, holes — and every mismatch with the BOM.
Assembly, welds, plates and sections — PDF, DXF or SOLIDWORKS.
Priced with your rates, exported as a clean PDF for the client.
Your numbers
Move the sliders to match your office. The calculation runs in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
FAQ
STEP models (.step, .stp) from SOLIDWORKS, Tekla, Inventor, Advance Steel and other CAD systems, plus DXF and DWG drawings. BOMs and cut lists come from Excel (.xlsx, .xls) or CSV.
No. ENRIVIA runs in the browser. Estimators, project managers and the workshop can open and measure models without a CAD seat.
From your own price list, hourly rates and norms — entered once in the costing catalogue. ENRIVIA measures the quantities; your numbers set the price.
The application and all documents — drawings, Excel and the client PDF — are available in English, German and Bosnian. You choose the document language per download.
We install ENRIVIA on your own server or host a dedicated instance for your company. Your models and prices are never shared with anyone else.
