FabEngineer Pro Quoting Lite

A connected, step-based quote builder for fabrication work. Enter your costs by stage, keep a live running total, and finish with a margin-based sell price and per-unit pricing.

1. Material

Raw material cost, scrap allowance, and quantity

$0.00

Part Quantity

Raw Material Cost Each ($)

Yield (%)

Use yield to account for drops and scrap. 85% means only 85% of purchased material becomes useful part material.

Material Handling / Markup (%)

2. Cutting / Processing

Setup, runtime, machine rate, and per-part processing

$0.00

Setup Time (hr)

Run Time Per Part (min)

Machine / Process Rate ($/hr)

Consumables / Adders Total ($)

3. Welding

Weld metal, deposition, welding labor, and cleanup

$0.00

Fillet Weld Size (in)

Total Weld Length Per Part (in)

Number of Weld Lines

Weld Metal Density (lb/in³)

Deposition Rate (lb/hr)

Welding Labor Rate ($/hr)

Arc Time Efficiency Factor

Multiply arc time to better reflect real labor time. Example: 2.0 means labor time is twice pure deposition time.

Cleanup / Grinding Per Part (min)

4. Labor & Overhead

Assembly, engineering, QA, overhead, and outside costs

$0.00

Assembly / Shop Labor Total (hr)

Assembly Labor Rate ($/hr)

How This Works

Each step stores its own cost and feeds the summary automatically. That means this functions like one connected quote instead of a pile of separate calculators.

This lite version is best for:
• weldments
• fabricated assemblies
• laser / brake / weld work
• small to mid-size fab shop quotes
