TraceParts today announced that its 3D library of suppliers and standard parts catalogs has been certified for Autodesk Inventor 2013 3D mechanical design software through the Autodesk Inventor Certified Applications Program. Digital Prototyping with Autodesk Inventor software gives manufacturers the ability to digitally design, visualize and simulate how a product will work under real world conditions before it is built, which helps reduce cost and increase efficiency. Through this technical and marketing achievement, TraceParts reinforces its long-lasting partnership with Autodesk, having been a member of the worldwide Autodesk Developer Network (ADN) for 17 years.
TracePartsOnline.net 3D component library is one of the largest part libraries in the world, offering more than 100 million 3D CAD models & 2D drawings, including both industry standards as well as products from hundreds of manufacturers' catalogs used by the tooling, machinery, aerospace and automotive industries. Users can browse or search for products, configure product options, create dynamic 3D previews, and insert native Inventor 3D models directly into their designs together with their rich Bill of Materials (BoM) attributes.
"Engineers are far more dependent on manufactured content than ever before, and this certification demonstrates our commitment to meeting the needs of our global customers," said Jim Quanci, director of Autodesk Developer Network. "TraceParts provides easy and quick access to millions of native-format Autodesk Inventor models of the parts our customers use every day. So now, the Inventor Community can concentrate on designing and innovating new products instead of wasting time and effort modeling parts they don't manufacture."
"We are extremely pleased to be once again the first 3D Parts Library to reach the Autodesk Inventor 2013 Certification," said Gabriel Guigue, TraceParts Managing Director. "Time to market is crucial to Autodesk Inventor customers, and we know that over 80% of CAD models that mechanical designers add to their parts list are later purchased. This is why we strongly believe this Inventor 2013 certification will bring fantastic additional marketing exposure to our hundreds of 3D catalogs."
