Helical Products Company Inc is using SolidWorks 3D PartStream.NET to market its motion control products to customers via an interactive online storefront. Fast and easy to deploy, the service enables customers to download 3D models of Helical's standard catalog products into their product designs to ensure fit and function prior to purchase. These products are listed on SolidWorks' 3D ContentCentral (www.3dcontentcentral.com), a directory of suppliers offering downloadable 3D part models to thousands of project designers and engineers worldwide.

Downloads of 3D models and 2D drawings take just seconds. 3D PartStream.NET eliminates unnecessary data conversion costs and delays by offering industry-standard formats or native support, regardless of which CAD system is used. Customers can zoom, pan, and rotate 3D product models. Realistic colors, shadows, and transparencies make it easy to visualize accurately how the product will work in their design.
