3D Display

With so-called anaglyph glasses, or color-filter glasses, the image source shows two stored images in shifted positions. Due to the color filter in the glasses, each eye only reacts to one image. Since both eyes see two different images, the brain automati-cally puts them together again to generate one three-dimensional picture.

You need a pair of 3D glasses when you see this image:

Be aware that the part acquisition costs are only the tip of the iceberg! The highest saving potential is not realized during purchasing, but at a much earlier stage.By optimizing the reuse rate of available parts and reducing multiple parts, you influence the development costs for your product to an extent that is not possible at a later point of time.

How much does it cost to create a record for a new part?VDMA German Engineering Federation and many other enterprises figure up their part costs as follows:

According to this one purchased part costs 1,800 Euro per new part. A self-constructed company part costs 3,400 Euro per new part.

How large iS your PartS MaSter?

Multiple parts = Bad

You don’t think so? Here’s the proof!

A large part multiplicity means a higher expenditure of time in order to find the right parts. In addition, this means a large number of parts and higher costs for the whole company.

Multiple parts = Time x Cost

Universally known is that time is money:Time = Cost

In connection with the first assumption the result is:Multiple parts = Cost x Cost = Cost²

As already recognized in church, money is the root of all evil:Cost = √Bad

In connection with the previous equation we prove: Multiple parts = √Bad²

Make or buy

With PARTsolutions you make the right decision!

Many companies still create a large portion of single parts themselves, although supplier parts are available on the market. Increasing the use of supplier parts creates spare production capacities which allows companies to concentrate more on their core competencies.

Before deciding on making a part or buying a part, one should analyze first if there is a special know-how about production of certain parts within the company and which parts can be purchased from a supplier.

If you compare the internal production costs with those of manufacturers for standard parts you can easily save over 40% of your expenses for parts!

Proprietary vs. supplier parts

PLM and ERP systems manage and know only internal, previously in-tegrated parts. The question “make or buy” cannot be answered.

Only with Strategic Parts Management PARTsolutions they can think outside the box which means finding and implementing same or similar parts of numerous suppliers from the external parts world.

Make or Buy?

»MISUMI provides the Strategic Parts Management with over 1 million different individually configurable mechanical parts. Compared to company parts which are produced internal or external, these parts are usually 60% cheaper and most of the times faster available. This unburdens in-house production and creates extra capacity to concentrate on the production of more complicated parts.«

It is often very complex to classify parts master data manually. CADENAS‘ innovative technology allows you to effectively struc-ture and clean up chaotic parts master.

Semiautomatic classification and data structuring The semiautomatic classification of your parts master by means of Strategic Parts Management, significantly reduces the effort required for the manual allocation of existing parts into a class system.

CADENAS PARTwarehouse solution semiautomatically builds up a classified structure of your parts data base. PARTwarehouse identifies similar components through geometrical or textual similarities and pre-classifies them.

CADENAS´ Geometrical Similarity Search GEOsearch quickly guides engineers and purchasers to the right component, even if they do not know the right article description.

A picture often says more than 1,000 words.

Engineers and purchasers know what they are looking for, but they often do not know what it is called. In order to find the required part, it may sometimes be easier to sketch it instead of describing it.

There is no need for a CAD system, with a simple 2D sketch you can draw the component you are looking for and immediately receive all relevant results.

From geometric properties to the matching part

CADENAS´ topology search allows you to browse the whole database for the properties and dimensions of components which match the component you need.

Simply enter attributes like length, width and diameter and receive class-encompassing search results that correspond to your requirements.

Possible variables:

� Outer diameter � Volume and surface size � Bore holes � Symmetry � Basic form (cube, cylinder, cone)

Naturally, the topology search may be used in combination with all other search methods!

User example:

You are looking for an axis, in other words a rotationally symmetrical component of which you only know the length and one of the outer diameters.

With the CADENAS topology search you only have to imagine the desired part in the future!

CADENAS´ full-text search offers an effective possibility to browse the complete catalog and parts world of the Strategic Parts Management for necessary parts.

Proposed corrections and alternative search terms PARTsolutions checks search terms for spelling errors and proposes similar terms. In doing so CADENAS´ full-text search does not only regard component identification, but also table contents.

Moreover, the Strategic Parts Management offers the possibility to get a proposal of terms which are similar to the search terms. They are auto-matically extracted from the search-database.

Combining several search terms If you, for instance, use the term „screw“ du-ring your search, PARTsolutions automatically offers related terms like „low screw head“ or synonyms. When clicking on one of these terms it automatically becomes a combined search.
