Lino Automate
Code-Free Process Automation
In modern mechanical engineering, time is the most valuable resource, yet engineers still spend hours on manual, repetitive tasks.
Lino® Automate provides an answer: The modular software automates end-to-end workflows, helping engineering teams accelerate processes, reduce errors, and focus on meaningful innovation – all without requiring any coding expertise.
Replace Routine with Innovation
Lino Automate creates an intelligent link between your CAD environment and enterprise systems such as PDM, PLM, and ERP. It transforms recurring activities – including file creation, retrieval, storage, and cleanup – into reliable, fully automated workflows, ensuring consistent results and freeing engineering teams to focus on higher‑value work.
Streamline Workflows with Smart Action Lists
At the core is an intuitive action‑list system that allows you to define precise process sequences using simple semantic logic. These sequences can run directly within the CAD environment or be triggered externally, ensuring reliable data quality, consistent outputs, and significantly faster engineering cycles.

Frequently asked questions
Knowledge base on workflow logic, rule‑based control, and end‑to‑end automation.
Here you will find answers about the central automation platform for end‑to‑end engineering and business processes.
Learn how rule‑based workflows replace manual tasks, standardize data flows, and automatically execute recurring activities—from CAD operations through to backend processes.
What is Lino Automate and why is it relevant for medium-sized companies?
Lino Automate is a process automation platform for engineering and CAD processes, specifically designed for medium-sized mechanical and plant engineering companies. Recurring tasks around your CAD system can be automated without programming. Companies reduce manual routines, increase efficiency, and create the foundation for Industry 4.0-ready, end-to-end processes.
How does Lino Automate support an Industry 4.0 strategy?
Industry 4.0 requires connected systems and automated data flows. Lino Automate links CAD, PDM, ERP, and other systems into a continuous digital thread. Processes run rule-based and automatically – from the model through to production release.
How does the solution help address the shortage of skilled workers in engineering?
In medium-sized businesses, routine tasks tie up valuable expert resources. Lino Automate automates recurring activities such as file operations, data transfers, or document generation. Design engineers gain time for innovative, value-adding work.
How do medium-sized companies benefit economically?
Automated workflows reduce error rates, shorten lead times, and increase process reliability. Especially for highly configurable products, significant efficiency gains can be achieved – with a clearly measurable ROI.
Can Lino Automate be used without a large IT department?
Yes. Automation is defined via so-called action lists using understandable semantics. Processes can be set up and adapted without programming skills. This makes the solution particularly attractive for medium-sized companies.
How does Lino Automate improve scalability?
When the product portfolio expands or configuration variety increases, processes can be extended flexibly. Thanks to its modular architecture, automation can be rolled out step by step – ideal for growing companies.
What role does data consistency play in Industry 4.0 environments?
Industry 4.0 is based on consistent, end-to-end data. Lino Automate standardizes process steps and ensures reproducible results. Errors caused by manual interventions are reduced.
For which medium-sized companies is the solution particularly suitable?
Mechanical engineering, plant engineering, and manufacturing companies with highly configurable products benefit the most. As soon as processes are performed manually on a regular basis, automation delivers a clear competitive advantage.
