When your engaged in the process of creating a new part how can you be sure it does not already exist?
May be it was created for a different project, or may be a very similar part already exist and could be used for your new project if you only new it exist!
With 3DPartFinder for Autodesk Inventor you can always find what is available before creating a new part…and then spend more time on a true innovation!
Watch our video below to get a flavor how to do it!
No need to learn new software! Select a part or draw a rough 3D model in your CAD!
Use any function of your CAD system to analyse the search results more efficiently!
One loved by the users: Results ranked in 3D by similarity to the reference part.
Pick any part in the search results and launch a quick search!
No thumbnail! The 3D models are displayed in your CAD system for a complete analysis
We index your Native CAD geometry to provide the highest search accuracy!
Being the first with a new product on the market has its merits! 3DPartFinder helps you reduce the time spent to reinvent the wheel and allow your team to concentrate their efforts on the real innovative aspects of your new product.
More than 50% of the cost to create a new part is spent outside the engineering/design group. When you reuse an existing part you save all that money.
Your design team can inspire new design from existing ones. They automatically identify the author of existing parts and learn from their experience and/or from their designs.
From day one you can start measure your progress in reuse of existing parts. 3DPartFinder provides, at the frequency desired, a status report on the number of duplicates and nearby duplicates at any given time.
3DPartFinder interface directly with the Autodesk Vault to automatically index your parts. Every time you create or modify a new part in the Vault we update the index. This helps you to concentrate on Innovation rather than documentation….and the Autodesk Vault is free!
The investment we made to integrate our Shape-based Search Engine to Autodesk Inventor is for your benefit. We index the native CAD data which allow you to search and compare models with the highest accuracy. You can launch a search from a part uploaded in your CAD system or from a 3D rough model you just draw.
Every year our solutions are tested by the Autodesk Certified Partner Program to ensure Autodesk users can take advantage of all the capabilities of the new Autodesk Product version.
