Customers customize. They buy. Your factory gets production-ready files instantly. No manual processing. No errors. No discrepancy between digital orders and physical products.
The Missing Link: Connecting Digital to Physical
The Challenge
Most 3D configurators focus efforts to look great on the front-end, but fail at the critical hand off to manufacturing, resulting in errors, delays and additional manual effort.
Spectrum’s Solution
Spectrum automates the entire custom workflow, with production files generated instantly once a user finalizes their design. What the customer sees is what your factory produces.
