Standard Lifters Inc. launch 3D Online Configurator with on-demand CAD models powered by CADENAS

Standard Lifters Inc. has released an on-demand product configurator featuring instant access to 3D CAD models of their die components for the global metal stamping industry. The U.S. manufacturer was born from the idea that high-quality, standardized components would allow for superior production performance and savings for tooling suppliers. The new interactive product configurator based on the eCATALOGsolutions technology powered by CADENAS provides 3D CAD models for free download in over 150 neutral and CAD formats, e.g. Solid Edge, SOLIDWORKS, NX, Autodesk Inventor and MegaCAD. Through this comprehensive service, Standard Lifters are able to reduce their customer’s design time while providing an innovative digital customer experience.

The new tool enables users to instantly customize and download die components to test fit in their preferred format. This way, Standard Lifters improves their customer experience for an expanding global audience: “Our innovative designs really come through visually, so it’s a lightbulb moment when designers and engineers can see a high-quality image and match that with a configurable preview of the product,” sais Jeff Blackmore, Director of Sales and Marketing at Standard Lifters. He adds, “We strive to be on the forefront of innovation and a gold standard for our customer base. We recognized that our existing CAD delivery method wasn’t meeting that goal. Different regions and industries have different preferences, so we want to make sure that we have a CAD offering that is suitable for everyone and adds value to their design process.”

The new product configurator includes a live pricing module which displays the list price based on a selected configuration. “By including live pricing, we are removing barriers and adding transparency to the specification process for our users. This innovation sets us apart within our industry and allows users to make a more educated decision when selecting which product is best suited for their application,” says Blackmore.
