The DigiPara GmbH was founded in 1989 by Andreas Fleischmann.

Starting with the parametric application "Genius-Vario" for AutoCAD, DigiPara sold more than 2000 applications. In 1995 this application was sold to Genius GmbH and finally to Autodesk, the Vario core component today is part of AutoCAD Mechanical.

      Several lift companies have used Vario for their builders- and quotation drawings since 1990. This was the start for DigiPara to develop specific branch applications for the elevator industry: LIFTdesigner. Today LIFTdesigner is available in version 5 and is used by several major companies; in particular Schindler and Otis are using it worldwide in their facilities. Also more than 400 small- and medium elevator companies and consultants are using LIFTdesigner worldwide.

DigiPara at Interlift 2007

    Since 2002 DigiPara has extended the activities for the escalator industry and our escalator tools are today used by Otis, Schindler and Kone.

    In 2006 we extended the LIFTdesigner product for the design of cabin interior. That was the start of CABINdesigner. CABINdesigner 2007 is the simplified, easy-to-use product that fulfills the major requirements to generate a cabin layout and cabin approval drawings.
