SolidWorks Corporation has redesigned its 3D ContentCentralWeb site that presents online catalogues in a common format, enabling users to find appropriate 3D CAD models, and accelerate the product design process. A standardised view of millions of product models reduces time spent searching through supplier catalogues and frees engineers to spend more time designing better products.
This new version of 3D ContentCentral is free to registered users and is available in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese. Users may now access supplier product information, 3D CAD models and 2D drawings in a consistent format and quickly complete cross-catalog searches to find the desired component. 3D ContentCentral’s new interface and multi-language support address a growing global demand for online content. 3D ContentCentral currently hosts more than 175 supplier catalogs and showcases “supplier certified” models which represent millions of part numbers. In addition, 3D ContentCentral offers quick access to more than 5,300 models contributed by the 3D ContentCentral user community which are featured in 3D ContentCentral’s User Library.
