TraceParts, registered its one millionth TracePartsOnline.net user on December 13th. This CAD user is Mr. Zeise from the German company Werkzeugbau und Feinwerktechnik Meiningen GmbH and he won an Apple iPad™ offered by TraceParts.

“I am very pleased to be the lucky 1,000,000th registered user on TracePartsOnline.net. I am a mechanical designer and this web site is an invaluable productivity resource for me because it saves so much time by not having to redraw the purchased parts and by directly inserting the part numbers and descriptions into my CAD system! Thanks to the time and energy I save I can concentrate myself to the value added part of my design job”, explains Mr. Zeise.
