The companies within the Knott Group develop, design, manufacture and distribute chassis components for trailers, as well as braking systems for commercial and off-highway vehicles. Knott frequently needs to send and receive large 3D CAD files containing engineering drawings. In the past, it was a tedious process to get the files to its customers on time. As Knott’s business grew, and new customers within the military industry imposed more strict requirements, Knott needed to find a viable solution to manage the secure transfer of large files. Knott chose Axway File Transfer Direct. “Transferring large files with enhanced security rules often used to take two days. Now it is done in half an hour. It is an entirely worry-free procedure for everyone involved,” explained Torsten Kynast, Head of IT at Knott.
