Dr Klas Orsvärn, the Co-founder of Tacton, adds: "We have come to know Lino GmbH as an extremely reliable and competent partner who creates customer value through the effective and efficient use of TactonWorks."
"Dr Klas Orsvärn already presented his first ideas about linking Tacton Configurator with SolidWorks to me in 2004. At the time, I was able to confirm the basic concepts and offered my recommendations for better integration. I am thus particularly pleased that TactonWorks is now a gold partner product of SolidWorks and that I can help to make this product a market leader in Germany," says Rüdiger Dehn, executive director of Lino GmbH.
Lino supplies the software and provides first-level support, training, workshops and project orders. Process quality is ensured by means of remote tools and tracking systems.
