Testimonials
“SteelXML has enabled us to eliminate
keystroke errors and receive shipments
more accurately.” - Garbe Iron Works, Inc.
“The benefit of sharing steelXML files while releasing
material for cutting has noticeably expedited the
process. We are seeing less clerical data errors and
increased productivity.” - Levan Associates, Inc.
“With FabSuite and steelXML we can transfer data
between our organization and Infra-Metals without a
single manual data entry step and can transfer drawing
data to the floor in a matter of minutes..” - M & N Structures
“Since we started using FabSuite, particularly steelXML we send
to Infra-Metals, the ordering time has been cut literally in half. It
is but a few clicks to send the file and it is sent back just as
fast. It has been a wonderful timesaver.” - McFarlane MFG Co. Inc.

Client Implementation Example
Klute, Inc. of York, Nebraska
• Builder of electrical substations
• Fabricates from plate, beam, & tube
Klute’s inventory is entered into FabSuite upon
delivery to the facility. Job information
including parts and plates is passed to ProNest
when it’s ready for nesting. And once nesting is
complete, the plate usage and remnant
information is passed back to FabSuite
automatically.
“Being able to track inventory is a big deal,”
said Jordan. “And now we’re able to do that
throughout the entire workflow. It only
requires us to enter the data one time, and
inventory is 100% up to date.”

Larry Karpinsky, New Jersey Iron
Shop Data Systems Peddi-nest FabSuite integration has made
nesting plate faster and even easier than the stand alone
program, with the benefits of FabSuite tracking the material
and costs so your inventory is accurate and you will not make
more parts than you need. It has really made a difference in
how fast and accurate we can get parts made with knowing
what has been done and what has to get done.
