TraceParts publishes its annual report on the use of sensors and measurement systems in design projects
In 2015, industrial design professionals downloaded over 140,000 CAD models of sensors and measurement systems from the TraceParts platform.
Saint-Romain, France; April 20, 2016 - TraceParts, a world-leading supplier of 3D digital content, has produced a detailed report on the CAD models of sensors and measurement systems downloaded according to product family, country and area of activity.
Several industrial design professionals no longer bother modeling existing parts and instead prioritize the use of parts whose CAD models are available and certified by manufacturers. In 2015, the number of CAD files downloaded from the TraceParts platform broke the 60-million bar, which confirms the trend seen in the world of computer-aided design.
For all the companies operating in the sensors and measurement systems market, this report highlights the growing number of new projects launched during 2015 according to country and industry, and provides detailed information about the component families chosen by designers, such as position sensors, photoelectric sensors, inductive sensors, pressure sensors and other measurement systems.
This 2015 report on sensors and measurement systems is available free of charge from the TraceParts website and follows the two previously published reports on bearings and electric and electromechanical parts.
The TraceParts activity report on sensors and measurement systems is available free of charge from the traceparts.com/pcs/sensors-measurement-systems/.

Featured Product
T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
