TraceParts 3D catalogs to be presented at the SOLIDWORKS World 2009 Conference

The first 3DContentCentral® content partner demonstrates its commitment to the SOLIDWORKS community.

Saint Romain (France) – February 3rd, 2009 — As a member of the Trace Software Group, TraceParts will join the SOLIDWORKS World Conference being held in Orlando, Florida, from Feb. 8-11. The productivity benefits of the TraceParts 3D library of supplier’s catalogs will be demonstrated in the Partner Pavilion, booth #307. TraceParts has been a SOLIDWORKS Solution Partner since 1998 and it was the first to supply its catalogs on 3DContentCentral® as a content partner.

Time is precious and designers have better things to do than model off-the-shelf components for their projects. With over 100 million native 3D CAD models for SOLIDWORKS, the tracepartsonline.net portal completely eliminates the time consuming process of finding and modeling international standard and manufacturers’ components. The time saved in this way allows the designer to spend more time on the more critical stages of the design process.

TraceParts leveraged the SOLIDWORKS openness to develop an extensive library of international standard SOLIDWORKS-native 3D parts. Designers from all industries, and especially those involved in Industrial Machinery, Tooling, Automotive and Aerospace design, benefit from all the most commonly used components in mechanical design from the largest names of the mechanical industry: Advantech, Asco Numatics, Bosch Rexroth, Cepex, CGI, Contrinex, Dirak, Euchner, Facom, Festo, Ganter, GGB, Halder, IFM, Igus, INA/FAG, Kabelschlepp, Legrand, Legris, Mädler, Misumi, Nozag, Schmalz, Schmersal, Schneider Electric, Sherex, Sick, SNR, Stauffenberg, TEA, Trelleborg, Vanel and more.

“We are delighted to exhibit at this year’s SolidWorks World Conference”, says Gabriel Guigue, Managing Director of TraceParts. “For many years now we’ve been delivering tens of thousands of CAD files every single day to designers from our portal tracepartsonline.net, and it’s always a great pleasure to meet some of them face to face!”
