Automatic Valve minimizes downtime in your projects with its TraceParts 3D Product Catalog

Since 1945, Automatic Valve has been a reference in the fluid power industry. Part of ROSS Group, the global leader in fluid power safety solutions and poppet valve technology, the company’s engineering and quality has made them a valued name in their field.

Whether you need a single air valve, a complex manifold with intricate pneumatic circuitry, or a custom-designed solution tailored to your specifications, they provide world-class pneumatic solutions to meet your needs.

With a customer focused approach, it is natural that Automatic Valve decided to provide their community with CAD models. Detailed and accurate 3D view, complete and precise data, we’ll see how the development of a comprehensive 3D Product catalog enabled the company to serve its community even further.

About Automatic Valve Industrial

Automatic Valve Industrial provides a variety of solutions for different industries including transport, process, automotive and automation for the main part.

With thousands of working applications, and a team of experienced, knowledgeable engineers, the company is able to deliver a timely and high-quality response to any pneumatic needs, as specific as they can get.

With options like its Quick Ship Program, Automatic Valve proves that it values the importance of minimizing downtime in the production process. Because of this, the company listened to customers’ requests for 3D models to speed up and rationalize their conception and design steps. This is where TraceParts came in handy.

The advantages of CAD models to streamline processes

With an extensive library of hundreds of proven, specialized products right off the shelf, Automatic Valve provides all that’s necessary for fluid power engineering. But the flip side of the coin is that many products often mean a lot to search through.

That’s why the company decided to build a comprehensive catalog of digital twins, easy to browse and integrate into different workflows. Because of the precision of its products and the variety of application cases, the data and customizability are critical aspects of these CAD models. In fact, the more data and options a 3D model has, the easier it is to integrate it into different conception or design projects.

Why TraceParts

As a ROSS Group company, Automatic Valve naturally turned to the same solution as Ross Controls which already used TraceParts 3D Product Catalog Solutions. The standardization through Ross Group with the TraceParts platform not only helped the fluidity of internal processes but also helped maintain unity in their customers’ workflow across different Ross services and companies.

One of our main goals is to provide easily accessible information to customers that helps them during their design and product selection stages.

Indeed, TraceParts 3D viewer and variety in CAD format make it a valuable solution for answering various customer types. Moreover, the seamless integration in one brand’s website is a major asset to give easy and direct access to data without having to go through lines of data sheets.

With this step, Automatic Valve proves furthermore its involvement towards helping engineers and designers reduce friction and time loss in all their projects.
