Plate

INVEX software built for service centers focused on plate processing

The INVEX cloud-based metal software offers comprehensive functionality for metal and steel plate service centers as well as plate processors. INVEX enables these metal companies to place an order for a variety of cut shapes or irregular sketches and fulfill the order using multi-step production functions. Common plate cutting business cases, such as plasma cutting or oxy cutting, can be handled quickly and out-of-the-box.

These metal companies, also referred to as metal and steel plate stockholders, normally carry a wide range of products, which includes metal and steel plates of a variety of thicknesses and sizes.

Orders can be fulfilled using the multi-step routing function that can fulfill an order across a single or multiple warehouses.

This can include outside processing steps; all required transfers are automatically created.
