With sustainable variant management, you can control and shape the diversity of your service portfolio far beyond mere product configuration.
By sustainable variant management, we mean, as a first step, analysing your existing parts master in your ERP or PDM system. To do this, the VULCAN Variance Analyser app uses AI-supported text analysis to process the part descriptions in the parts master and suggests part groups, variant parts and material characteristics in order to optimise the management of your product variance.
Once the variant parts and their characteristics have been defined and specified, the next step is to train neural networks with completed order data, thereby learning from past product configurations.
Once set up, the VULCAN product configurator app can even be controlled via chat, enabling products to be automatically configured, prices determined and quotations issued immediately (CPQ) from a purely textual enquiry using NLP (natural language processing).
Our classix.ai server provides NLP services that enable direct understanding of language.
Our JANUS App Suite provides VULCAN with neural networks that you can train using past product configurations. This allows you to accelerate the determination of product characteristics safely and efficiently.
With the chat interface from our METIS App Suite, product configurations can be generated using voice commands alone.
Regardless of the device or operating system, you can use VULCAN from anywhere. All you need is a standard browser and a network connection.
VULCAN automatically identifies variants from ERP and PDM part descriptions and organises product variety without the need for manual maintenance. This reduces the workload and improves master data quality in the long term.
VULCAN imports CAD models and automatically generates parametric parts and variant bills of materials. This enables flexible product configurations without the need for additional design work.
Natural language can be used to configure products, calculate prices and generate quotations. This speeds up CPQ processes and significantly reduces errors in the sales department.
VULCAN first defines variations and generates parts dynamically. This eliminates the need for complex sets of rules, and the product structure remains low-maintenance and scalable in the long term.
VULCAN can be run either in the cloud or on-premises. This enables maximum IT flexibility, investment security and infrastructure decisions tailored to your needs.
Parts, bills of materials and work plans are transferred directly to the ERP system. This creates end-to-end processes, reduces data silos and speeds up production operations.
Product characteristics manage variation without complex rules. Companies reduce the variety of parts, simplify maintenance and maintain technical consistency across all products.
VULCAN runs entirely within the browser – no installation required, and it works on any operating system. This simplifies roll-out and maintenance, and enables location-independent access for all users.
Neural networks learn from past configurations and improve automatic feature extraction. This enhances data quality and reduces the need for manual intervention.
