Ever since it was launched on the platform, TraceParts has improved the viewer in response to the needs of visitors looking for technical information (CAD models, images, technical drawings, symbols, footprints, etc.) in a wide variety of neutral and native CAD formats.
The WebGL 3D viewer developed by TraceParts reassures designers and engineers that the selected component is suitable for their design project. The 3D viewer can be used regardless of the web browser and also functions on PCs, tablets and smartphones. It reduces the time taken to load CAD models and offers a better preview of all the configurations for a given product.
Professional designers can obtain different views of the part (front, rear, top, isometric, etc.) with different renderings (solid, wireframe, transparent, etc.) to quickly and easily analyze every aspect of the part. Engineers and designers can also display the dimensions* directly in the 3D viewer.
The exploded view function displays the parts of an assembly separated by distance but positioned so that they show how they are assembled.
Once designers and engineers have finished looking up the required parts, they can take a screenshot for easily sharing the required information for their projects.
If you are a parts manufacturer or distributor, you can offer your customers an interactive 3D view via the TraceParts platform, or you can use the TraceParts API to add the 3D viewer and the accompanying product information directly to your website and thereby enhance the user experience (UX).

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
