Millions of variants, one solution

 

When millions of product variants become a challenge, innovative solutions are required. Erhardt+Leimer has found a pioneering answer with Tacton Design Automation, the Tacton Configurator, and Software Made by Lino® – for faster processes, better data quality, and maximum customer orientation.

From bottleneck to efficiency: New ways in sales and design

Especially the demand for 3D models for integration into existing or new machine layouts posed challenges for the design team. This changed with the introduction of the Tacton Design Automation and Tacton Configurator solutions, integrated and enhanced by powerful Lino tools for 3D web visualization and drawing automation.

From two weeks to 20 minutes – Rethinking design

The seamless solution from Lino ensures complete digitization from sales to production. Sales representatives today access an intelligent rule set that guides them to valid product variants—even without deep design knowledge. External sales teams additionally use online configuration. The result: a significant acceleration and simplification of the entire process. “Complex designs that used to take several hours are now completed in less than 20 minutes,” says Spatz.

Besides speed, the solution scores with enhanced service: customers receive error-free 3D models for direct integration into their machine layouts—and OEM customers can even configure their products in the webshop, view prices, download models and drawings, and place orders directly. Even technical details such as screw calculations are automatically checked. This makes smart configuration a competitive advantage—powered by Lino®.
