Workshop feedback
“Before CoteCote, ballooning an 80-dimension drawing and preparing the AS9102 FAI report took us at least 1h30 across Acrobat and Excel, always with the risk of missing a tolerance. Today, the drawing is ballooned in 20 seconds and the inspection sheet is already filled with ISO limits. That's real time saved for the machines and actual dimensional control.”
