DesignSpark Mechanical download figures rocket to more than 50,000
October 08 2013 - 12:42PM
RS Components (RS) and Allied Electronics (Allied), the trading
brands of Electrocomponents plc (LSE:ECM), the world's leading high
service distributor of electronics and maintenance products, have
disclosed preliminary data showing that in the first two weeks
since the launch of DesignSpark Mechanical, the new free 3D design
tool has registered over 50,000 downloads from DesignSpark.com, the
company's online engineering community. More than three quarters of
these downloads were recorded in the first seven days of the tool's
availability.
The urgency among engineers to try out this simple 3D modelling
and assembly software, which RS co-developed with 3D design
specialist SpaceClaim, is a strong measure of the requirement for
freely accessible, time saving design tools. The statistics
indicate that this requirement is global, stretching across more
than 150 countries. DesignSpark Mechanical is available in multiple
languages.
Mark Cundle, Global Head of Technical Marketing at RS, said, "If
there was ever any doubt about the potential demand for a free 3D
design tool, these staggering initial uptake figures are more than
proof that engineers in every part of the world are hungry for
tools that make it faster and easier to complete the design process
and get their products to market. The simplicity and affordability
of DesignSpark Mechanical opens up 3D design to a much wider
engineering base and creates a level playing field for companies of
all sizes to compete."
DesignSpark Mechanical is available for free download from
www.designspark.com/mechanical. Support can be found on the
DesignSpark community at www.designspark.com.
