TraceParts has an all-new website to replace the former web2CAD portal.

The launch marks a crucial stage in the process of merging the technical and marketing aspects of the web2CAD and TraceParts offerings.

The new site will help to consolidate TraceParts' identity and its position as a major player in the market for parts libraries for CAD users and for technical data distribution solutions for manufacturers.

It offers a faster, more user-friendly navigation system, with numerous new headings, such as the gallery featuring examples of electronic catalogues and configuration tools produced for parts manufacturers.

Thanks to this new site, the 450,000 designers regularly using the TraceParts Online and powerParts on Web portals now have unique, centralised access to over 100 million 2D and 3D CAD drawings taken from the catalogues of the biggest parts manufacturers: Asco/Joucomatic, Assfalg, Atlanta, Bosch Rexroth, Boutet, Busak+Shamban, Cepex, Chambrelan, Contrinex, CSR, Dirak, Elitec, Euchner, Expert, Festo, Ganter, Genustech, Gerwah, Halder, Hervieu, HP Systems, IFM, Igus, INA/FAG, Item, ITV, Joyner, Kabelschlepp, Kinetic, Legrand, Legris, L'Etoile, Madler, Mayr, Mecalectro, Misumi, Nadella, Norelem, Normydro, Nozag, Pinet, Progressus, Quiri, Rabourdin, Rohde, Romheld, Rotelmann, Rud, Sapelem, Schmalz, Schmersal, Siam-Ringspann, Sick, SNR, Socafluid, Somex, Stauffenberg, Stuwe, Suhner, Sumer, Supratec, Telemecanique, Wefapress, Zimm etc.

"This new website is the fifth in a line of websites we have created since we started to work with the Internet in 1997, which is a strong indication of longevity and maturity in the IT sector", explains Gabriel Guigue, Managing Director of TraceParts.

"After being in the CAD libraries, electronic catalogues, and configuration tools market for over 15 years, we felt that it was vitally important for us to make our offering clearer and easier to understand".

"We have therefore worked in close co-operation with our partners and a number of customers in designing the new site, and I have to admit that the result has greatly surpassed our expectations".
