Case Studies

STEIN Automation GmbH & Co. KG has fully digitized its layout planning process, utilizing Lino® 3D Layout, Lino® 2D Fix, and Tacton® Design Automation. This approach reduces design errors, significantly speeds up the quoting process, and allows customers to benefit from realistic 3D layouts that facilitate rapid approvals and a modern customer experience.

GC-heat, a specialist in electric heating systems, relies on configuration solutions from Tacton Systems and Lino GmbH. The result: The turnaround time between customer inquiries and quotes has been drastically reduced, while data quality has been further optimized and process reliability significantly improved.

When millions of product variants become a challenge, innovative solutions are required.
