Staying ahead of the 3D marketing race

TraceParts strengthens its investment in the CAD file download platform

TraceParts, a world-leading supplier of 3D digital content for engineering, is offering industrial parts vendors new 3D marketing opportunities to increase their market share.

Thanks to the latest changes made to TracePartsOnline.net, users can now locate the geographical position of manufacturers or distributors via Google Map. This functionality allows potential customers to reach out to parts vendors from the earliest stages of their design projects.

The www.TracePartsOnline.net online CAD library has also been upgraded with a new ultra-fast and powerful search engine allowing users to run queries with multiple criteria to pinpoint the parts they are looking for.

This search engine, just like the new 3D viewer, comes as a direct response to the growing needs of engineering firms to speed up their design projects.

Thanks to this new 3D viewer, the community of design professionals registered on TracePartsOnline.net can view and interact directly with the 3D models in real time, irrespective of the web browser used and without any need for plug-ins or software add-ons. Millions of CAD users can now view and select the parts they need for their projects before downloading them in the CAD format of their choosing.

Finding the right part is precisely the challenge faced by design professionals, and TraceParts has concluded many partnerships with several software publishers, including SolidWorks and Autodesk. With over 50 million CAD models delivered in 2014, TracePartsOnline.net has now become a key engineering platform to promote industrial components to a vast network of 9.2 million design professionals worldwide.
