Custom software aids pump selection
The new planning software CD from Wilo includes a comprehensive software package for professional calculating, planning, layout and documentation of pumps and pumping systems.
LCC calculation and quote preparations are also integrated in Spaix.
Using the Spaix ProjectAdapter in combination with the classical Spaix programs makes working with the pump selection software so much more effective.
The advantages of automated data exchange are obvious: avoiding double entries; eliminating the possibility of human error; optimising data editing; and saving valuable time.
Project data and technical information can be transferred in external applications through the project adapter interface, which can be configured individually.
As a result, the user can work with all technical and commercial data used in the Spaix PumpSelector.
The project interface is available in two versions: with the first version text based files, which are generally used in ERP applications, eg ASCII or XML files can be created; or the alternative version uses the XLS interface to transfer project data into Excel files.
The interface can be configured individually through recipe files.
In the process, the user can define which Spaix fields are to be assigned to the target application.
Therefore, the same fields that are also used in Spaix datasheets or product descriptions will be available.
Redundant double entries can be avoided due to the automated data exchange.
Consequently, valuable time is saved and the possibility of human error is eliminated.
Information is easily transferred into the in-house ERP application so that the data can be stored in a central system.
On demand the updated information can be transferred back into the PumpSelector, for example in XLS or CEF format.
