to deliver a decisive competitive advantage. And

at MACO, our technical support is your gateway to

Our DATASERVICEFoundation of your production processes

Our MacoWinPlus software enables you to configure your

hardware fittings quickly and with no errors. The online tool

includes the main functions, while the offline version gives you

convenient customer management functions. It also enables you

to optimise your product range according to your requirements,

and use an interface to interconnect the data with your window

construction programs and machine control processes. This

version needs to be installed and set up by a MACO technician at

your site. Just choose which model suits you best:

The online version of MacoWinPlus enables you to

make calculations for your fittings quickly, easily and

– most importantly – with no errors. You can also

find fitting prices, manage the product range and

order at the touch of a button.

MacoWinPlus Online is ideal for you if you’re:

A manufacturer who doesn’t use window

construction software – you’ll be able to access

hardware overviews, parts lists, technical product

information from our TOM, and diagrams of the

fittings including milling patterns and drilling

dimensions.

A dealer – you can quickly and easily generate

proposals tailored to customer requests.

You benefit from the full range of functions when

you have MacoWinPlus installed at your facility.

Your use case will determine the license model

that’s right for you.

If you’re a dealer, you can define a specific

product range and benefit from easy customer

management.

If you’re a manufacturer using window construc-

tion software, you can integrate the complex

details of hardware fittings into your tool. If

your environment is highly automated and your

machine park allows it, you can benefit from the

integration of the processing data for our fittings

with your machine control system.
