Ever since it was created in 1982, Lika Electronic has worked closely alongside its customers, especially by developing product ranges to suit their specific needs. It was actually in response to its customers' requirements and the needs of the market (robotics, medical, aerospace, etc.) that Lika Electronic decided to publish the CAD models for its range of rotary and linear encoders on the TraceParts platform.

Alessia Dal Pra', from the Marketing and Communication Department at Lika Electronic, explains the reasons that prompted Lika to focus its choice on TraceParts' solutions:

"We have known and been using TraceParts for several years. We were determined to be an active part of their platform. Growing demand for 3D models among engineers and designers, and our desire to provide our customers with an end-to-end service prompted us to head down the 3D road.

We see TraceParts as a powerful marketing tool in terms of its ability to raise our brand's profile and market our products. We also believe that it is an invaluable tool for supporting our customers during the design phase."

For easier interaction with the people visiting its catalog, Lika Electronic is adding the "Request for quotation" function to each datasheet published on TraceParts.com.

As such, designers and engineers can submit a simple form containing the part number and quantity, and quickly receive a price proposal from Lika Electronic.
