FREE TIER GUIDE · UPDATED 29 September 2026
Getting started with FactorySpec
Prepare a focused evaluation around one repeatable product family.
This guide describes the service. Start free at one station; while SmartFACT is in early access, we set the first workflow up with you.
Choose the family and its owner
Select a family with meaningful variations and a named product expert who can approve its engineering definition.
Bring representative examples
Include ordinary orders, boundary measurements, missing values and incompatible choices. Provide the expected results independently.
- The input dimensions and options.
- Approved component references and quantity calculations.
- The cutting or manufacturing requirements your system needs.
- Examples that must be held for review.
Agree the handoff
Identify the receiving software and the exact output it needs. Starting free begins with an agreed scope and the first product family set up with you.
Practise with the real screens
Practise preparing and reviewing product definitions, checking configurations and accepted packs, and looking up accepted results, using made-up manufacturing data.
Read the guides on any device. Interactive demonstrations run on a desktop or laptop, showing the office screens or the station screens used on a handheld or scan station.
