Fast, reliable and efficient – the configuration software Festo Design Tool 3D reduces the risk of errors when designing and ordering system modules and offers greater convenience. The Festo Design Tool 3D was developed in cooperation with CADENAS the software manufacturer from Augsburg. Delivering system modules as a complete package with one order item simplifies logistics and assembly operations.

The PARTcommunity 3D CAD models app, especially popular among engineers, was upgraded once again: the app, offering access to millions of 3D CAD models from over 400 manufacturer certified catalogs of renowned companies, excels in a new, fresh design with new features.

RÖHM is known as a worldwide leader in clamping and chucking tool technology. To create their products they use more than 12,000 standard and supplier products, in addition to their own internally designed parts. With so many parts, streamlining product search and selection was critical to meet the needs of Röhm’s 1500 employees at 60 facilities worldwide. RÖHM has worked closely with CADENAS, utilizing the Strategic Parts Management PARTsolutions to reduce duplicate parts, aide part search and reduce design time.

For years, the 3D CAD download portal PARTcommunity by CADENAS has been a top address for engineers looking for 3D CAD models of components. PARTcommunity has now been augmented with the new PARTcloud function: With this innovative tool, engineers can also upload 3D CAD models of their self-constructed components and share them with friends and coworkers as well as make them available for download.

CADENAS released the latest version of the Strategic Parts Management PARTsolutions. Version 9.8 is characterized by more speed and better performance. Highlights are the accelerated intelligent finding functions based on the Geometric Similarity Search GEOsearch, the 2D Sketch-, Topology- and Full-text Search as well as the simplified remote access with a central hosting on the new Application Server web service.

The PARTcommunity 3D CAD models app by CADENAS is now available in the latest version 3.0.4. Besides many other optimizations in function and design, the popular, over 450.000 times downloaded app now possesses the trendsetting sketch search.

CADENAS and CAXA present the new PARTcommunity portal which was espe-cially adjusted for CAXA, offering one of the biggest collection of online cata-logs for CAD models in native formats for the Chinese design software CAXA 3D.
