That's were the software could play a big role. There could be a laptop
set up walk the customer through the selection process, then build an
order, indicate if the part is on the self or send a g-code file to the
machine to build it. The finished part could be laser engraved with the
part number for pricing. Maybe a 3D scanner could be used to scan an
item that the new part will mate with to determine thread pitch, size
and type of connection. Although, an experienced sales person could
probably do the same thing.
