TAKE CONTROL ON PART PROLIFERATION

Your designers wish they could create new parts only. But honestly how can they be sure one of their colleagues has not already designed a similar part?

Until today, it was extremely complicated and tedious to verify whether or not an existing part would be available for your new product. This is no longer true. 3DPartFinder can tell your team in seconds if the part exist in your company!

Your team can search with 3DPartFinder at every step of your design process. From their first rough 3D model or later on as they refine their design. 3DPartFinder is like an assistant that tells them what is available in your company and bring suggestion to inspire their new design.

Put in place a best practice allowing your team for instance to launch 3DPartFinder before to check-in a new part and get a confirmation that there is no similar part that could be reused.

 

3DPartFinder is your solution to maximize reuse and of course to stop creating duplicates!

BEST REUSE STRATEGY STARTS WITH THE DESIGN-ENGINEERING TEAM

Part design - Engineering Analysis
Tooling definition - NC Program etc.
Manufacturing process - Assembly instruction etc.
Shop floor documents - Quality control
Purchasing - Inventory- Spare part mgmt

Design Teams trigger value chain!

1. They decide what is created…

  1. and where money will be spent throughout the value chain

3DPartFinder will be their decision tool

1. With 3DPartFinder they can make conscious decision and

  1. Trigger a reuse process and
  2. Have a positive impact on your bottom-line from day 1

MAIN REUSE BENEFITS YOU GET WITH 3DPARTFINDER

No more duplicate part created

Definitely eliminate duplicate part creation and thus cut costs and reduce time to market.

Increase Quality and Reliability

By reusing part that have been proven, reliability increases

Reduce inventory costs

Reusing existing parts, avoiding to create unnecessarily new part numbers, you decrease parts you have in inventory.

Boost productivity

Fewer new parts to design and manufacture train more for the optimization of part development

Reduce tooling, testing and prototypes costs

By reusing parts, you create less new parts thus, development and manufacturing costs decrease

Foster Innovation

Maximize reuse of existing parts and keep your time to innovate!

SHAPE-BASED SEARCH IS MORE EFFICIENT TO LOCATE 3D FILES

LANGUAGE INDEPENDANT

The same search performed by an English (handle), German (griff) or French-speaking (poignée) person will often bring different results! 3DPartFinder will find the most similar regardless of their native language.

NAME INDEPENDANT

These are all “brackets” but for Shape-based search only their shape will be considered to find the right one!
