Working together with web2CAD is an easy way for manufacturers to build a new global sales channel over the internet." "For engineers and designers, the benefits are clear - they can download these CAD drawings free of charge directly into their designs, making the selection of a component part a dynamic and intuitive process.
The design time savings achieved by our 35,000 registered users can be as much as 30%, so web2CAD is well established as an invaluable productivity tool for mechanical engineers and designers", she continued, "These new manufacturers add to our already comprehensive library of over 30 million component parts from more than 70 manufacturers, which makes us the largest online CAD parts library in the world".
