MACHINE DESIGN launches new CAD library

    Nov. 9, 2006
    The free MACHINE DESIGN CAD Library includes millions of configurable 2D and 3D CAD models of components and assemblies down-loadable for easy use in new and existing designs.

    The free MACHINE DESIGN CAD Library at cadmodels.machinedesign.comincludes millions of configurable 2D and 3D CAD models of components and assemblies down-loadable for easy use in new and existing designs.

    The library comes as a result of a new strategic partnership between MACHINE DESIGN and PARTsolutions LLC, a leading provider of 2D/3D digital parts catalogs.
