e-Book guides interactions between component suppliers and designers

There were 69 million CAD models downloaded in 2016, therefore the TraceParts platform which is used as a key tool for people working in the CAD and design sector needs to be up to date. To have a better understanding of its users, TraceParts asked over 150,000 design engineers a series of questions covering several topics: how they approach their work and projects, their expectations and working habits. 

Here is what the study taught us, and what the key indicators provided:

  • 86% of users plan to purchase a component after downloading its CAD model.
  • 88% of users prefer to work with suppliers who propose CAD models of their products.
  • 77% of design professionals surveyed said they had identified several new component suppliers.
  • 37% of users on the TraceParts CAD content platform regularly work with smartphones and tablets.

Now, there are a total of 658 industrial component suppliers that have joined the TraceParts platform, meaning design professionals around the world have more than 100 million 2D plans and 3D files at their disposal to download.

Each new catalogue published generates an average of 5,000 new leads a year and 86% of the design engineers already registered on the TraceParts platform regularly visit the platform to look for components for their projects.

TraceParts new e-Book groups together all the statistics about how design professionals approach their work and projects, including their expectations and working habits.
