Our own manufacturingDelivered
Drawing → toolpath → manufacturable file, with no manual intervention for the usual parts. The pipeline runs in our own workshop.
running in production
Between the drawing and the machine there is manual work
ITLine develops manufacturing and industrial software between the design and the machine: toolpaths from drawings (CAD/CAM), parametric design, CAD integration, industrial simulation and machine vision. We do not deliver a manufacturing execution system (MES), meaning shop-floor work orders, scheduling and production tracking, as a finished product.
The situation
You have the drawing and you have the machine. Between them sits someone who does the same thing over for every part: takes the drawing, sets up the path, exports, corrects. That is not manufacturing, it is typing, only more expensive.
What we build
Software next to the machine. Toolpath from the drawing, parametric design, CAD integration, and the pipeline from the plan to the manufacturable file. What used to be a repeated manual step becomes a setting, and what is judgement stays human.
Industrial simulation and machine vision belong here too: a VR framework built for safety training, and a system built on body segmentation. Both are industrial uses.
Our own small-batch manufacturing is the test bench. There it does not run on a demo but on a live machine, at our own risk. That is the difference between "it works in principle" and "it made parts today".

A system built on body segmentation, with real-time image processing.
Common questions
How long does manufacturing software take?
It depends on how many repeated manual steps sit between the design and the machine, and which file formats the work passes through. We give the timeline after walking through the existing designs and machines, phase by phase, and at the end of the first phase the pipeline already runs on a real part.
What does it cost?
The quote is made after the walkthrough, for a fixed scope. How it is formed: What it costs.
Do we have to replace the CAD software or the machine control?
No. The software sits between the existing design tool and the machine, reading and writing their formats. We do not design the product for you, and responsibility for production stays with you.
What do we need to provide?
Real designs with their manufacturable files, the person who does the manual preparation today, and a chance to test beside the machine. Our own small-scale production is the test bench, but the final check happens on your machine.
What if the software computes a wrong toolpath?
What is judgement stays human: the software takes over the repeated steps for routine parts, while unusual parts and decisions at the machine stay with people. The toolpath can be checked before it goes to the machine, and should be.
What happens to our designs?
The designs are your property and stay in your systems; the software works on the existing files. What runs on site and what does not is decided at the walkthrough; the details are settled by contract.
What is not in it
We do not design your product for you, and we do not take on manufacturing liability. The software is ours, the part is yours.
