VanaMetal

Technical projects, welder qualification and site installation, for metalwork shops

A concept for metalworking and structural metal companies: orders tied to the technical project (drawing, tonnage), welder qualification records (WPS/WPQR) and material quality certificates, on-site installation scheduling. Everything about running a fabrication shop, not just metal-waste records. Market research, not a built product yet.

VanaMetal is a concept, not a built product, and the least validated of the 13. We haven't found any dedicated software for running a structural metalwork shop, either for production or for metal-waste records. Unlike other domains researched, we haven't yet found a concrete demand signal. If you run a metalwork shop or plant and want to tell us whether this would help you, it helps us prioritize.

  • Orders tied to the technical project, with tonnage and materials calculated from the drawing
  • Welder qualification and material quality certificate records, per project
  • On-site installation scheduling, separate from workshop production
Concept
no dedicated software found
