Trace Parts for Autodesk Inventor is the first fully integrated library of mechanical components for Autodesk Inventor.
It provides designers with access to an extensive library of mechanical components that is always up-to-date and includes a dynamic 3D viewer for the fully parametric components.
Trace Parts is not just a product line, but also a concept and entire range of services supplied to manufacturers and drawing offices.
It is based upon PartsXML(c), a structure that standardizes the coding of the information required to accurately define components, and the dotCAD(c) format, a descriptive language based upon Javascript that is used to define the fully parametric component models.
