Case Study: Siemens accelerates CAD data access with TraceParts

Siemens relies on native CAD formats from TraceParts

Siemens needed to make its product data more easily available to engineers working in different CAD environments, where standard and purchased parts often had to be reverse engineered manually. The company partnered with TraceParts to distribute its product information digitally, including native CAD formats for components such as control cabinet parts, motor starters, and contactors.

TraceParts converted Siemens’ neutral STEP geometry into many native CAD formats and published the catalog on its platform, helping customers access accurate data in the format of their own design software. The project was completed to Siemens’ satisfaction and has already delivered significantly high download figures, while ongoing updates on TraceParts are keeping the catalog current for users worldwide.
