Why You'll love 3DPartFinder
for TopSolid
3DPartFinder for TopSolid is an add-in for the TopSolid CAD/CAM system that delivers a seamless experience for CAD/CAM users. It automatically indexes new and modified parts from TopSolid’PDM, giving you immediate access to all relevant data to complete your tasks efficiently.
Our geometric search engine is fully integrated into the TopSolid suite to simplify part search and comparison. By indexing native CAD data, 3DPartFinder ensures the highest level of accuracy. Searches can be launched directly from an imported part or from a 3D rough model created in TopSolid’Design.
Our solutions are tested and validated annually for TopSolid, and we adhere to the Certified Solution Partner Program to ensure full compatibility with the latest TopSolid product releases.
Create quotations in a snap
Quoting is faster, more accurate, and far more reliable when it is based on real production data. With 3DPartFinder for TopSolid, you can instantly identify geometrically similar parts that have already been manufactured and reuse their validated costing information.
Access historical quotes, machining times, materials, tooling, and process plans directly from TopSolid. Instead of starting from scratch, estimators and engineers can base new quotes on proven data, reducing uncertainty and minimizing the risk of under- or over-pricing.
By reusing existing manufacturing knowledge, you significantly shorten quote turnaround times, improve consistency across estimates, and respond to RFQs with greater confidence, helping you win more business without increasing overhead.
Streamline manufacturing preparation
Preparing a new part for production should not require reinventing proven processes. With 3DPartFinder for TopSolid, manufacturing engineers can instantly find parts with similar geometry and reuse existing CNC programs, tools, machining strategies, and process plans.
By leveraging validated manufacturing data from past projects, teams reduce preparation time, avoid errors, and ensure consistency across production. Instead of starting from a blank CAM setup, engineers build on established best practices that are already aligned with your shop capabilities.
Thanks to seamless integration between 3DPartFinder, TopSolid’Design, and TopSolid’PDM, reusable manufacturing data is accessible directly within the CAD/CAM environment. The solution can be deployed in less than three days, enabling rapid adoption and immediate productivity gains across engineering and manufacturing teams.
Win more contracts
Winning more contracts requires competitive pricing without compromising margins. With 3DPartFinder for TopSolid, pricing decisions are based on proven manufacturing data rather than assumptions. By identifying similar parts that have already been produced, you gain clear visibility into actual costs, tooling reuse, and process efficiencies.
This insight allows you to adjust pricing confidently, knowing that existing programs, setups, and manufacturing strategies can be reused. Reduced risk, shorter lead times, and predictable production costs enable you to submit more competitive and realistic bids.
By responding faster and more accurately to RFQs, your teams increase win rates while protecting profitability—turning your existing manufacturing knowledge into a measurable competitive advantage.
Stop creating unnecessary parts!
3DPartFinder always finds 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?
