Areas of specializationFrom the quoting desk to the spindle.

How Lehrling supports automation on the shopfloor. Every engagement is scoped to your shop during the pilot.

RFQ · Digital desk

RFQ Automation

Parse incoming drawings and specs, extract manufacturing-relevant parameters, and draft cost and lead-time estimates for your estimating team to refine.

Use caseA precision machining shop cutting RFQ turnaround from days to hours — CAD and RFQ documents in, feature extraction and a first-pass estimate out.

CAM · Digital → metal

Toolpath Programming & Validation

Automate repetitive toolpath work and validate programs before they reach the spindle — collisions, out-of-tolerance regions, and machining practice.

Use caseA mold & die shop using AI-based face marking by post-machining tolerance — faster quoting and programming on repetitive finishing work.

VISION · Physical floor

Computer Vision on the Floor

Vision systems for shopfloor conditions: part counting, tool wear, presence checks, and video analysis of non-cutting time for value-stream insight.

Use caseA job shop analyzing tool and part movement, machine tending, and fixturing from floor video — with face anonymization for worker privacy.

AGENT · Knowledge on the job

Custom AI Agents & Chatbots

Domain agents trained on your SOPs, manuals, and machine docs — instant answers for operators and programmers grounded in your process, not generic advice.

Use caseNew operators getting machine-specific troubleshooting from an internal chatbot instead of waiting on a senior technician for routine issues.
