Components for plant builders, machine builders and system integrators
Your own quotation to the end customer binds you for four weeks, so the component price inside it is not a lookup — it is a margin you have already signed away. On shukchok it comes as a document with a number, a date and a validity date.
Your costing
A screenshot does not survive a quotation period
You cost a plant for an end customer, and your own quotation binds you for four weeks. The component price in it came out of a basket: a snapshot, without a number anyone could refer to, and worth nothing in a project file.
If the price then rises, you carry the difference. If you send an enquiry instead, you carry the time — and the end customer waits for a figure that has existed all along.
So a quotation on shukchok — an open marketplace for industrial goods — is a commercial document: its own number, a date, a validity date, available as a PDF in the customer account and redeemable from there. Price, tax and total are calculated on the server from the catalogue data rather than from anything the browser sent.
- Specification table on all 114 articles — nominal size, material, connection, operating limits
- Manufacturer and supplier at every position, for the component list you hand your customer
- A quotation covers exactly one line item today; for a bill of materials there is the contact route
From specification to goods inwards
Four stages — and two deadlines that go missing in a project
The two deadlines are in stages three and four, and both of them are usually discovered afterwards.
Specify and request
Every article carries a structured specification table — nominal size, material, connection, operating limits — so the selection can be made at the position. Request a quotation at the article for the item you have to price.
Quotation in the account
Number, date and validity date on a PDF you can attach to your own costing. It stays retrievable in the account and can be redeemed there once the project is released.
Order and partial delivery
Where goods come from several suppliers, partial delivery is the normal case and may be invoiced separately. For a project milestone the date that counts is the last partial delivery, not the order date.
Inspection on receipt
The duty to inspect starts on delivery, not when the part is fitted. Obvious defects have to be notified without undue delay (§ 377 German Commercial Code), and in a project the weeks between delivery and assembly sit exactly in that gap.
Readable before you order
The project-relevant rules, with their reference
Readable before the order rather than after the incident. All references are to our general terms and conditions.

| Delivery time | Non-binding unless expressly designated as binding; subject to timely self-supply | 8.1 |
| Delivery term | DAP inside the EU customs territory, DDP across a customs border | 8.3 |
| Partial delivery | Permitted where reasonable; the normal case for goods from several suppliers, and separately invoiceable | 8.9 |
| Forwarded goods | Access, unloading point and, where required, lifting gear and helpers are the buyer’s responsibility | 8.11 |
| Duty to inspect | Inspect on receipt and notify defects without undue delay, otherwise the goods count as approved (§ 377 German Commercial Code) | 10.2 |
| Warranty period | Twelve months from delivery | 10.5 |
| Used goods | Claims for defects excluded; the condition follows from the article description | 10.6 |
For manufacturers and suppliers
You buy here — and you could sell here
On a marketplace a plant builder is almost always both. What you manufacture yourself — assemblies, special valves, switchgear components — is what the works that is ordering its sensor on this page is looking for. Listing costs you no joining fee and no monthly charge.
And it is at the same time the answer to the gap this page has to name honestly: PDF data sheets exist for four of 114 articles, no article references EN 10204, and one carries a 3D model. The purchasing side is what the catalogue carries fully today; the design side is the open position.
A manufacturer who maintains models and certificates anyway does not have to build a shop for them. They store the files on the article and deliver through the same basket — and this side of the marketplace grows at the rate such suppliers come in.

Questions from plant and machine builders
What gets settled before the release
Can I get a quotation with a validity date for my costing?
We need a whole bill of materials priced — is that possible?
Is the stated delivery time binding?
Will an order containing parts from several suppliers arrive in one shipment?
We manufacture ourselves. What does it cost to list here?

Measurement and test equipmentContact gauges, PT100 probes, submersible probes.
Heat exchangers and pressure vesselsEvaporators, coils and heating registers with their dimensions.
ElectricalSwitchgear-side components and connectors.
Pressure sensorsTransmitters P12, P20 and the flush-diaphragm P21.
Two ways in
Price the position before the project is released
A quotation with number, date and validity — to attach to your own costing and redeemable once the order arrives. And if you manufacture yourself: the people who buy from you are reading the same page.
