ABB enriches its interactive catalog with intelligent engineering information from CADENAS

The ABB division of electrification products now offers an interactive version of a flip catalog for the SNK series terminal blocks. Here the customers and interested parties can browse through all available terminal blocks and can also access intelligent, technical product information such as 3D CAD models, PDF data sheets, product videos or other websites with a click. Engineers can download ABB's 3D CAD engineering data directly in more than 100 native formats such as Autodesk® Inventor™, SolidWorks®, Siemens Solid Edge®, NX, etc. and integrate into their own CAD systems.

It's easy for customers to get to the interactive catalog version directly to ABB's 2D and 3D CAD model: After clicking on the product type indicator within the product table of the interactive catalog, ABB customers and prospects get to the suitable CAD model of the ABB product catalog quickly and directly. This is based on CADENAS eCATALOGsolutions technology and fits seamlessly into ABB's technology used for flip catalogs. Moreover, users can click the order code with the product table to reach the respective product detail page with further component information such as data sheets or technical data.

"The interactive version of the ABB terminal blocks product catalog allows us to include CAD models, videos and links to other websites with further information. In general, this is an interesting topic for all of our customers," says ABB.

The SNK series terminal blocks from the interactive catalog version can be used worldwide in industrial and commercial applications of all types. They adapt quite well to harsh environmental conditions and, due to their electric strength, they are specially adapted for use in solar, waste and water, railway and marine applications.

The software solution eCATALOGsolutions enables the technology company ABB to provide top customer service, as its engineers and purchasers always have access to all important ABB information and data. "eCATALOGsolutions offers component manufacturers a number of options for making life a lot more convenient for engineers with their product information. With its flexible and modular structure, the CADENAS software solution for Electronic Product Catalogs can also be directly integrated into the company's website or an existing eShop. Thus, our customers stay one step ahead of their competitors on the market," confirms Jürgen Heimbach, CEO CADENAS.
