The French subsidiary of Würth Elektronik is taking advantage of the TraceParts CAD-content platform to develop its sales.

Saint Romain, France, March 23, 2017 – Würth Elektronik and TraceParts have been working together for approximately a year now. Würth Elektronik manufactures electronic and electromechanical components. On the initiative of its French subsidiary based in Jonage (Rhône), the company decided to publish its catalog of around 500 products on the TraceParts CAD platform.

The CAD models of Würth Elektronik components are therefore available online and can be used by technicians and engineers in the electronics sector to help them finalize their industrial design projects.

What are the main benefits of the TraceParts platform for users and suppliers of industrial components?

• The main advantage for users - i.e. design engineers - is that the TraceParts platform provides quick, easy access to a wide variety of CAD components certified by suppliers. Thanks to the different formats available on the TraceParts platform, designers can download 3D models that are compatible with all CAD software products on the market. For example, all the CAD files of Würth Elektronik components are available in more than 50 CAD formats.

• For Würth Elektronik, the TraceParts platform acts as a sales tool that generates new customer contacts each time a CAD file is downloaded. On average, some 1,500 3D models from the Würth Elektronik catalog are downloaded every month.

"As an international manufacturer, we were looking for a sales tool to help boost our profile and increase our sales. The TraceParts platform has enabled our company and products to be selected for several new projects. It also offers innovative features, notably the  wide choice of CAD formats provided. Our design customers really appreciate how easy to access and user-friendly the tool is," explains Fabien BRUGNONE, International Product Manager at Würth Elektronik (Jonage, France).
