Geometry and datums
Send files when they exist.
Contact
Send the part goal, material, size and acceptance criteria.
A useful first review depends on practical data: CAD, drawings, photos, base material, functional zones, deadline and inspection expectations.
Feasibility input
The visuals show what the first review depends on: component context, route choice, finishing and inspection expectations.
Part context
Technical handoff before sales contact.
A useful contact request starts the first engineering review with the right facts.
Component and damage context
Show scale, surface and access.
Finish and inspection
State acceptance needs early.

Feasibility review
What to send.
For repair, send damage photos and the function of the damaged zone. For cladding, send wear/corrosion mechanism and target surface. For LMD, SLM or hybrid new builds, send CAD, material and final machining needs.
Preferred next stepSubmit the form, then book a technical call if needed. NDA can be handled before sensitive data exchange.
Need a base estimate first?Use the estimator for an early route, mass, time and base-cost screen before sending a full feasibility request.

Teams or phone appointmentIf a conversation is easier, email directly and suggest a time window. Exafuse can sort route choice, NDA questions and missing data during the appointment.Request appointment
NDA is not a blockerStart with non-confidential facts. Sensitive drawings, customer names or process details can follow after NDA alignment.
Most useful attachments
- CAD/drawing if available
- Damage or surface photos
- Base material information
- Target dimensions or finish
- Inspection or release criteria
Name and email are only needed when you email the request. The preview stays in your browser; send confidential files only after NDA alignment.
Low-friction contact
You can start small and add detail later.
The first message does not have to be complete. The important part is making the technical goal understandable.
No perfect RFQ needed
A rough description, photos and the main question are enough to start. Exafuse can tell you which data is missing next.
NDA first is possible
If the data is sensitive, start with an anonymized short description. NDA, file route and detail depth can be clarified before exchange.
Direct appointment is possible
For unclear or urgent cases, request a Teams or phone appointment and sort the technical direction together.
No portal requirement
The form creates an email draft. There is no upload portal and no hidden data storage in the website tool.
