About Us
For over 30 years alongside engineers: a software house focused on CAD, CAM, PDM and PLM for mechanical and electrical industries.
From the workshop floor to AI
Three decades alongside engineering teams: from workshop drawings, through PDM/PLM systems, all the way to AI-assisted design.
The Past: The Industrial Age
Evolution began with mechanization. This historical image takes us back to the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, where heavy machinery and human ingenuity transformed production methods.
The Past: manual design on a drawing board
Early '80s and '90s: The first CAD systems enter Italian companies. BYCO is born here.
The Present: The Information Age
With the advent of computers and software, we entered the information age. Programmers and engineers created the digital foundation of our current world. Centralized data, structured workflows, and integration with ERP and MES.
The Future: artificial intelligence
The final frontier. A digital neural network, a symbol of progress beyond simple programming, toward machines capable of learning and reasoning.
Our story
For over three decades BYCO SRL has supported Italian manufacturing companies in digitising their design and product management processes. We've walked our clients from drafting tables to CAD, from paper drawings to PDM/PLM, and today through the evaluation of AI-assisted engineering tools: three revolutions in thirty years, always with the same goal — helping engineers work better. We work with small, mid-sized and large companies, building bespoke tools whenever off-the-shelf software falls short.
Our mission
Change the way mechanical and electrical designers work every day: fewer repetitive operations, fewer errors, more reliable data across the full product lifecycle.
Our expertise
- Plugin and customisation development for AutoCAD, BricsCAD, Inventor and other CAD/CAM environments — including AutoCAD LT, normally closed to third-party customisations.
- Integration and configuration of PDM and PLM systems.
- Workflow automation: bills of materials, document generation, ERP and MES connectors.
- Technical training and on-site coaching.
- Certified hardware and workstation solutions (HP partner).
- Strategic advisory on AI adoption in engineering design and data management workflows.
On AI we apply the same approach we take with any other tool: no licences to push, no pre-packaged technology bias. We give you an independent view on if and where it belongs in your workflows, before you commit to licences, integrations or training — learn more.
Why choose us
We don't sell only pre-packaged solutions. We listen, analyse and design the right tool for your real workflow.
