NTN Europe Produktkonfigurator für Linearführungen und Kugelgewindetriebe

The goal

NTN distributes products in the field of bearings, linear motion technology and automotive spare parts worldwide. These include, for example, ball bearings, linear axis and chassis.

The configurators are mainly used as a sales tool to

a) quickly and easily find a suitable alternative to a competitor's product

b) to find the right NTN product quickly and easily, even without a type code.

The solution

The setup and functions of the two configurators are very similar, but customised to the respective requirements of the products.

To start, the user can enter the type code of a linear guide or a ball screw from the competition and find the right NTN alternative. The configuration can also be started by selecting parameters. For example, linear guides can be configured by selecting the size, coating and fastening and ball screws can be configured by selecting the lead, nut type and seal.

The aim is to find the right NTN product in just a few clicks. The configurator supports mass configuration by uploading Excel lists to the configurator.

During configuration, the linear guide or ball screw is displayed in 3D including dimensions. Configurations can be requested directly via the configurator, including delivery time, price and further information as a PDF document.

A few words from NTN

A huge advantage of CONFIGON is that we can maintain our data independently and quickly. (Translated from German)

The benefits

Efficient product selection

The configurators enable efficient selection of the right ball screw and linear guide thanks to intuitive step-by-step configuration. Customers receive personalised support when and where they need it – even from the comfort of their sofa.

Automatically generate documents

All relevant documents and information such as the price, dimensional drawings, type codes, product descriptions etc. are created automatically. Each configuration can be exported in over 100 native CAD formats.

No incorrect configurations

Thanks to the set of rules, the configurator prevents incorrect configurations. Only correct products can be configured. Thanks to the integration of the product catalogue, all necessary product information is available in the configurator.

Find competitor products easily

Competitor products can be found quickly and easily by selecting parameters such as brand, nominal diameter, pitch or type code. You will receive a detailed comparison of competitor and NTN products with all the differences.
