Calculate Coil

This quantity valuation offers you the material quantity calculation for coils, so that this rather complex calculation needn't be calculated and documented outside FACTON.

Alternatively, you can conduct an initial simple calculation if not all details of the quantity calculation are available and you can only enter the quantity.

Use the checkbox for this:

• Detailed Quantity Calculation

  • For an initial, simple material quantity calculation

• Detailed Quantity Calculation (default)

  • For the detailed material quantity calculation

 

The price per kg is determined using value rules based on dimensions

Further Information on material pricing, see Value rules at a material

 

The following example shows the detailed use of a material quantity calculation:

• Calculate Coil
• • Step 1: Create Should Cost Calculation
  • Step 2: Insert a Material (Mass)
  • • Extend Material Calculation
    • Gross Weight Base
    • Calculation Method

 

Step 1: Create Should Cost Calculation

Further Information > Create Should Cost Calculation

 

Step 2: Insert a Material (Mass)

By selecting the Calculate Coil quantity valuation and a corresponding geometric shape at the material, a more extended calculation logic becomes available.

 

Insert a Local Material (Mass)

1. Select the should cost calculation in the Structure view.
2. In the ribbon, click on Edit > Insert > Insert New Local Material (Mass).

   A local material is added under the should cost calculation.

3. In the Details view > Calculation view scheme (combobox), select the following quantity valuation:

   • Calculate Coil

   For materials with Calculate Coil quantity valuation, the following geometric shapes are available:

   Geometric Shape	Image	Required Input
   Strip		Input for Strip-Coil Materials using "Length Calculation"
   		Input for Strip-Coil Materials using "Material Utilization"
   Wire		Input for Wire-Coil Materials using "Length Calculation"
   		Input for Wire-Coil Materials using "Material Utilization"

 

Input for Wire-Coil Materials using "Length Calculation"

Define the following properties for the material in the Details view > Calculation view scheme (combobox):

Valuation	*Calculate Costs
Quantity Valuation	Calculate Coil
Detailed Quantity Calculation
Geometric Shape	Wire
Density	7.85 g / cm³
Wire Diameter (w)	5.00 mm
Gross Weight	60.00 kg
Calculation Method	Length Calculation
Length of Finished Material	50.00 mm
Price Source	Standard

Based on the input, the following values are calculated:

• Cross-Sectional Area
• Volume
• Weight per Length
• Profile Length (l)
• Total Number of Blanks
• Output
• Gross Quantity
• Relevant Quantity

 

Extend Material Calculation

The following checkboxes enable you to activate or deactivate further details of the material calculation.

 

 

 

• "Consider Markup" checkbox
• "Consider Recycling" checkbox
• "Consider Inbound Logistics Costs" checkbox

 

Gross Weight Base

For strip-coil materials, you can use the following selection to calculate the gross weight:

• Enter Gross Weight (default)

  • The value for the gross weight is entered directly here:

    • Gross Weight

• Calculate Gross Weight

  • The gross weight is calculated using the following values:

    • Inner Diameter

    • Outer Diameter

 

 

 

Input for Wire-Coil Materials using "Material Utilization"

Define the following properties for the material in the Details view > Calculation view scheme (combobox):

Valuation	*Calculate Costs
Quantity Valuation	Calculate Coil
Detailed Quantity Calculation
Geometric Shape	Wire
Density	7.85 g / cm³
Wire Diameter (w)	5.00 mm
Gross Weight	60.00 kg
Calculation Method	Material Utilization
Output	5.00
Material Utilization	70.00 %
Markup Rate on Net Quantity	30.00 %
Price Source	Standard
Price per Unit	23.00 EUR / kg
Refund per Unit	15.00 EUR / kg

Based on the input, the following values are calculated:

• Cross-Sectional Area
• Volume
• Weight per Length
• Profile Length (l)
• Length of Finished Material
• Gross Quantity
• Net Quantity
• Markup Rate on Net Quantity
• Markup on Net Quantity
• Relevant Quantity

 

After all inputs, the following costs are calculated and displayed as rounded figures in the Details view > Calculation view scheme (combobox):
