Why You'll love 3DPartFinder
for CREO
No need to learn a new software suite. Open a part in CREO, or select one in an assembly. Launch a geometric search from 3DPartFinder and find the closest similar parts to that reference.
Search results are presented directly in CREO, ranked by similarity with respect to the reference model. Use CREO 3D environment and native functions to analyse the candidates and select the best one.
3DPartFinder is a certified partner of CREO and leverages the CREO API. This provides you with the highest search accuracy. When 3DPartFinder identifies two parts as duplicates, they truly are.
Made for Windchill
3DPartFinder works hand in hand with CREO and Windchill.
Thanks to its interface with Windchill, 3DPartFinder is able to index previous versions of a part, analyse links between parts and assemblies, and follow the access rights defined in the PDM.
Search with powerful, advanced queries. 3DPartFinder Enterprise joins the indexed geometry with data stored in Windchill. For example, find similar geometries in a specific material, made during a specific project or quoted to a specific client. Combine filters to get the best result.
Don’t have Windchill? No worries. 3DPartFinder works with plenty of other PDM.
Don’t have a PDM? Still no worries! 3DPartFinder for CREO also works with files on a simple shared network drive. Wherever your CAD models are, 3DPartFinder will find them.
Stop creating unnecessary parts!
3DPartFinder always find your 3D models. But if, for any reason, duplicate or near-duplicate parts have been created in the last 24 hours, 3DPartFinder Part Proliferation Monitoring will identify them daily and will report the candidate parts you could consider for replacement.
3DPartFinder Part Proliferation Monitoring is your KPI! You now have control on part creation like never before.
Engineer faster!
If we agree that parts with similar geometry typically share similar functions and manufacturing processes, it follows that using geometry as a search key often yields far more relevant results than traditional keyword searches. Research also indicates that employees spend up to 30% of their time searching for information. Let’s do better.
With geometry-based search, critical questions can be answered quickly: What is the cost of a similar part? Is it already in inventory? What manufacturing tolerances should be applied to a new design? Which supplier should receive a request for quotation?
Not a CAD user? No problem. 3DPartFinder for All Users lets anyone locate relevant data using the same geometry-based approach as 3DPartFinder for CREO.
