Optimizing business processes
The switch to data-driven business models with automated processes and the integration of digital technologies are essential for competitiveness.
Business processes become data highways that provide product information across departments and systems. Standardization, process automation and optimization accelerate order processes and increase product efficiency.
- Infrastructure for digital transformation
- End-to-end business processes
- Support for the order process
- Product configurator defines rules
- Seamless system integration
Integrating digital technologies
The integration platform Lino® Hub is an important building block for companies on the path to digital transformation. The middleware can be flexibly integrated into existing system landscapes and supports the order process with rule-based configuration and intelligent interfaces to ERP and PDM/PLM systems.
Lino® Hub creates integrated and automated processes between sales, design, and manufacturing. The configurators used define the product characteristics using design and commercial rules. Lino® Hub integrates powerful configurators such as Tacton or Cosling to support sales and customers in product selection.
Data-driven business models with automated processes and the integration of digital technologies are crucial to competitiveness today and in the future.

Smart sales / purchasing processes
Speeding up order processes
- Digitization and standardization of product data
- Accelerated, automated quotation process
- Attractive 3D visualization on the web or in an application
- Generating CAD documents with just one mouse click
- Integration with any CRM system
Lino® Hub in Sales
In Sales, products are put together according to the requirements of B2C and B2B customers. Lino® Hub integrates powerful configurators such as Tacton or Cosling to support sales and customers in product selection. By connecting the CAD automation process, design data can also be generated quickly and easily at the click of a mouse
and created in an ERP system, for example.
Automated document creation significantly speeds up the order process. Thanks to integrated 3D visualization, product understanding and user experience are improved for users..
Processes become data highways that provide information across departments and systems.

Automated design processes
Simplifying CAD data generation
- Preservation of product knowledge
- Error-free CAD documents
- Digitization of design data
- Variant and product data management
- Automation through standardization
Lino® Hub in Design
Products are developed and designed in the design department to derive and process production-relevant data. Countless variants with a multitude of geometric and design parameters are usually the most time-consuming section and the reason for long processing times.
Lino® Hub accelerates this process with the help of a 3D configurator. Using parameterized CAD models, product versions are easily configured, drawings, parts lists and work plans are automatically derived and created in the PDM and ERP system using intelligent interfaces.
The approved research funding for the years 2020 to 2026 for Lino® Hub recognizes the technological innovation of the Lino team in the field of Industry 4.0.

Efficient production processes
Reduce set-up time – increase throughput
- Relief for the design department
- Efficient production through process automation
- Standardization and improvement of data quality
- Utilization of the machine inventory
Lino® Hub for Manufacturing
Today, modern CNC machines enable the direct processing of derived CAD/CAM data for machine programming. This leads to significantly shorter set-up times and higher throughput, but at the same time places high demands on data quality.
Lino® Hub also supports this process automation with the help of the configurator and CAD automation. The CAM program can be initiated directly after the product configuration. Tools, machining steps and product coordinates are then derived specifically for the configuration and translated into machine code.
Lino® Hub is becoming a key software component for the digital transformation of industrial companies in mechanical and plant engineering.

Application examples
Our Lino Hub examples for sales and product configuration show CAD data generation with Cosling Configurator in conjunction with the parametric 3D visualisation tool Lino 3D web. Real parametric models in the web view allow the 3D visualisation of all variants, even for complex models, during configuration.
There are currently direct integrations for Lino 3D web with Tacton CPQ, Cosling, SAP CPQ and SAP variant tables, e.g. to display Solidworks 3D models, prices and other information on the web. Further connections to other configurators and system integrations are available on request
