Configura Expands Dynamic Product Offerings with Launch of CET 14.0 Minor

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., USA—August 22, 2023—Configura is pleased to announce the launch of its quarterly update release, CET 14.0 Minor. The new offerings in the update improve the user experience through innovative project tools and further establishes Configura as a market leader in the commercial interiors and material handling industries.

What’s new in CET 14.0 Minor?

  1. New Catalogue Downloader Tool: To reduce maintenance, upkeep development time and to improve its scalability, Configura reworked the Catalogue Downloader that CET uses. This tool was optional for users in the May 2023 release, and will now be the default in the CET 14.0 minor release.
  2. More Sliding Doors: With the rising trend in barn doors and pocket doors, Configura added in the ability to include double pocket doors, stacking patio doors and double track/rail doors to designs.   
  3. Extended Functionality for Images on Walls: Users no longer need to type in specific dimensions when adding images to walls. Quickly select from several standard sizes, add matting, pick frame materials and orientation with only a few clicks.  
  4. CET Papers: Not only is CET Papers becoming increasingly faster and more accurate with ongoing efforts, we have also added the ability for users to use their own unique, installed fonts, to help improve dealership branding.  
  5. Photo Lab: Configura enhanced the post-processing tools, increasing efficiency in Photo Lab and improving the quality of renderings, along with the speed and functionality of renderings when using the Render Server.

“With the launch of CET 14.0 Minor, Configura aims to be a leading solutions provider for commercial interior and material handling design,” said Rich Trahey, VP of Global Sales & Marketing at Configura. “These frequent updates give our users the tools and resources needed to create the highest quality designs and plans for modern commercial and industrial spaces.”

New updates to CET Material Handling

With the release of CET 14.0 Minor, users can now purchase a more robust version of CollabPro. The new updates add on to the previous released version by increasing functionality and allowing for more users and storage than previously available. Real-time collaboration gives users and manufacturers a competitive edge that contributes to a streamlined workflow by allowing for better information access, increased tracking and transparency, and increased efficiency and productivity.

“With CollabPro, users can now work simultaneously with up to 15 people on a project at the Enterprise level and control who has access to projects and the degree to which they can manipulate them,” continued Trahey. “The original version of CollabPro has been available on Marketplace for CET Material Handling, but the new iteration adds to the growing versatility that CET offers for industrial space designers and continues Configura’s direction of developing data-driven and customer-focused solutions.”

Configura is also happy to announce the newest addition to CET Material Handling – The Essential Conveyor Extension. The Essential Conveyor Extension helps integrate popular conveyor systems on a warehouse floor and is one of the last missing puzzle pieces needed in order to design a warehouse. The Extension reduces common errors, the time it takes to design and the overall cost of implementing new conveyor systems. This extension (like the other Configura created Essential Extensions), does not contain specific manufacturer data, and works in both CET Material Handling and CET Essentials for Material Handling.
