Saint-Romain, France, May 20, 2015 - Würth Elektronik France, a subsidiary of the Würth Elektronik Group, a worldwide leader in the design, manufacturing and distribution of passive components, announces its partnership with TraceParts for the publishing of its CAD models.

Würth Elektronik has selected TraceParts for this project in order to diversify its online services and offer its customers new design tools. Quentin Laidebeur and Fabien Brugnone, who are in charge of managing the project, explain the motivation behind the decision:

"We were looking for a turn-key solution that would add value to our existing solutions, and. that could also manage the integration and distribution of our data. For various reasons, TraceParts stood out as the obvious partner for us."

"The solution proposed by TraceParts enabled us to focus on the quality of our CAD data and to rely on TraceParts' expertise for the publishing side. From now on, our sales teams will use the TraceParts mobile application to present our products; this is an excellent marketing tool for trade fairs or customer meetings."

The Würth Elektronik catalog has been online since April 2015 and currently contains almost 600 product families, i.e. 3,500 references available free on TracePartsOnline.net
