Lino GmbH
The Engineering Automation Specialist for Mechanical and Plant Engineering
Leading Innovation. Simply Integrated. Intelligently Automated.
We automate engineering processes—from sales and design to manufacturing. As a software developer and integration specialist, we combine product configuration, CAD automation, system integration, and AI-powered process automation into a comprehensive engineering automation platform.
The result: Manufacturing companies with a wide range of product variants are shortening lead times, eliminating sources of manual error, and scaling their engineering capacity—without hiring additional staff.
Engineering Automation by Lino: Less Complexity. Fewer Errors. Higher Throughput.
What We Mean by Engineering Automation
Engineering automation means end-to-end digitization and automation of the entire technical order process—not just individual tools, but the entire process chain.
Standard software for CAD, PDM, or ERP each covers their respective functional areas. However, gaps arise between these systems: manual data transfers, redundant data entry, and error-prone coordination. This is exactly where Lino comes in.
With the Lino® Hub platform as a central integration hub, we connect heterogeneous system landscapes—CAD, CAM, CPQ, PDM, PLM, ERP, and CRM—into a single automated end-to-end process.
The scope of automation addressed by Lino spans the four levels listed in the right-hand column:
Configuration Automation – Complex product variants are configured based on rules, technically validated, and made available as quotes. Sales and engineering teams work from the same data source.
Design Automation – 3D models, drawings, and bill of materials are automatically generated from configuration results. Rule-based design automation replaces repetitive manual design work.
Integration Automation – Data flows bidirectionally and seamlessly between all involved systems. Connectors, standardized data models, and the hub architecture ensure that no information needs to be entered twice or transferred manually.
Intelligent Automation – AI-powered agents assist with requirements gathering, design optimization, and process control. Always traceable, auditable, and with human-in-the-loop
