Cylindo Questions, Straight Answers
Sizing, cost drivers, timeline, and what production actually receives.
Yes. Our parametric models resize live to the millimeter, within the limits your factory sets – width, depth, height, module count. Price, BOM and CAD outputs follow the configuration, so nothing is redrawn between the order and the shop floor.
No rate card. The drivers are how many distinct products you need to cover, whether 3D models exist, how much custom logic the rules need, and which manufacturing outputs and integrations are in scope. Each phase is quoted at a fixed price before it starts.
Hosting, maintenance and SLA on the running configurator. It's separate from the one-time setup fee for each build phase.
Most first releases go live in about eight weeks; the usual range is 1–3 months, depending on how complex your catalog is. Scoping product rules, pricing logic and integrations comes first.
BOM, CAD (STEP, DXF), PDF spec sheets and CNC-ready files. Kilo brought operational costs down 40% by removing the manual step between order and fabrication.
