Manual

Adapting hard models to design requirements is widely viewed as a difficult, tedious task. For the HOTE team, however, it's just another day's work. The modeling team is the company's biggest asset. In the last 25 years, a team of experts has amassed that, together, is capable of realizing designer requirements exactly as founder Holzinger intended. All facets of modeling can be set into motion to "breathe life" into each project.

The last decade has been especially characterized by the interaction between man and machine, which gives the HOTE team a further competitive advantage when it comes to delivering improved quality in less time. To this end, a decision is made early on as to whether changes will be implemented manually or virtually with subsequent milling. Ultrahigh precision and efficiency must always be achieved regardless of the process chosen. The essence of "hands-on" modeling is thus retained and underscores the overall impression of the design models.

Virtual

A virtual studio leverages the resources of the modeling team at HOTE Studio für Produktdesign, where man and machine have harmonized since the 1990s.
The virtual studio comprises several workstations and integrates modeling programs ICEM Surf and Alias as design tools. Especially noteworthy here is the fact that all modelers are part of the core team at HOTE and have become knowledgeable and experienced by working at the company for many years.
