Streamline Engineering and Cutting Workflows in Infor XA

Two live sessions on September 16 showing how QBuild’s CADLink, ECx Manager, and NestLink connect design, change management, and cutting operations directly to Infor XA.

Session 1 – Wed, Sep 16, 7:00AM-7:45AM, Lapham 1

Automate Your Nesting-to-Cutting Workflow with NestLink

Still setting up jobs manually in your nesting software? NestLink does the work for you. By integrating your nesting software directly with Infor XA, NestLink automatically sets up ready-to-run jobs on your cutting machines—no data entry required. The result: faster job setups, reduced errors, less material waste, and real-time visibility into true job costs in XA.

In this session, you’ll learn how to:

Eliminate manual job setup by pushing validated jobs from Infor XA directly to nesting and cutting systems.
Reduce errors and rework caused by mismatched part data, quantities, and revisions.
Cut material waste through more accurate, system-driven nesting inputs.
Gain real-time visibility into actual job costs and performance inside Infor XA.

Session 2 –Wed, Sep 16, 8:15AM-9:00AM, Lapham 2

Bridging Design and Operations: Streamlining Infor XA Workflows with CADLink and ECx Manager

Manual data entry of item revisions and BOMs, email-based approvals, and disconnected systems slow down time-to-production and introduce costly engineering errors. Discover how QBuild’s CADLink and ECx Manager seamlessly bridge your CAD/PDM/PLM systems with Infor XA ERP through unified, bi-directional integration.

In this session, you will explore how to:

Eliminate manual data entry: Sync CAD/PDM/PLM data, item revisions, and BOMs directly into Infor XA to eliminate data discrepancies, reduce engineering errors, and accelerate time-to-production.
Centralize change management: Automate change request workflows with ECx Manager to keep cross-functional teams aligned from design to final assembly.
Bridge engineering and operations: Close the gap between design and production to ensure data accuracy and boost operational efficiency.
