Energy Procurement Challenges
Energy equipment procurement requires evaluating dense technical specifications across multiple vendors with unique data formats
Tolerances, cycle times, power requirements, automation specs—comparing across vendors is time-consuming
Wrong equipment choice means costly downtime, lost production, and missed delivery commitments
Manufacturing equipment represents huge capital expenditures with 10-20 year lifecycles

Energy Procurement FAQs
Common questions about using SpecLens for energy equipment procurement
Absolutely! SpecLens extracts CNC specs including axis travel, spindle speed, tool capacity, positioning accuracy, repeatability, rapid traverse rates, and controller specifications. Perfect for comparing mills, lathes, and multi-axis machines.
Yes! SpecLens extracts robot payload capacity, reach, repeatability, speed, degrees of freedom, mounting options, controller specs, and programming interfaces. Great for comparing collaborative robots (cobots) and industrial arms.
Yes. SpecLens extracts cycle times, units per hour/minute, batch sizes, changeover times, and efficiency ratings. This helps you calculate actual production capacity and payback periods.
SpecLens extracts electrical requirements (voltage, amperage, phase), compressed air needs, space/footprint dimensions, weight, and environmental requirements (temperature, humidity). This ensures compatibility with your facility.
