3D geometric similarity search launched on the TraceParts CAD platform

The TraceParts CAD model library is counting on the new 3DPartFinder™ geometric similarity search engine to significantly improve part search performance

(PresseBox) (Saint-Romain, France, )
TraceParts, a world-leading supplier of 3D digital content for design engineers, introduces an additional function into its CAD download platform for looking up parts and the associated information with a simple search using geometric criteria.

With the geometric similarity search feature, designer professionals can now use the 3D model of an existing part on the TraceParts platform to find all the variations and technical information of that model in just a few seconds and display the results of all the parts with a similar shape and size.

Basically, the 3DPartFinder™ shape search technology extracts the geometric signature that is unique to each part and compares it to millions of other parts on the TraceParts platform. The search results are presented in a 3D viewer, where the corresponding products are displayed in order of geometric similarity.

To provide CAD designers with even easier access to industrial parts, TraceParts naturally chose the ultra-powerful 3DPartFinder™ search engine.

To implement the new search engine, TraceParts joined forces with 3DSémantix, whose premise was based on a simple observation:

"Engineers designing 3D models and using CAD systems face a problem when looking for similar parts in a large database with a keyword-based search engine."

"Thanks to 3DPartFinder, we can tackle one of the major challenges with 3D searches and allow CAD designers registered on the TraceParts platform to find technically-similar parts that cannot be found with conventional text searches,"

adds Bertrand Cressent, Global Product Manager of TracePartsOnline.net.

What that means for CAD designers is that they can now identify new parts without using keyword-based searches, thereby eliminating all the difficulties associated with the specific and precise terminology of a given product (description, language, and so on).

Registered users of the TraceParts platform can check out this new feature, which is currently available for certain 3D products.

Industrial parts vendors looking for more information about publishing their 3D product catalog can contact TraceParts by email at info@traceparts.com or visit the www.traceparts.com website.
