Watch Below Video To See Them In-Action!

We have been diligently working to further advance Colson Group USA's brand websites - and have some truly exciting web plans in-motion that will continue launching late into next year. The first phase of these new websites began launching last year, and were created with consistent features to facilitate a common feel across the individual brand websites. From a visual table-of-contents to interactive and downloadable CAD models and Datasheets, our unified advancements are designed to enhance user experience by allowing you to quickly find products, and then deliver helpful product content to customers faster than ever before (CAD Models, Datasheets, Catalog Pages). Please watch the short video below to learn more about the new features on the websites and how to use them, or continue reading for further information:

可视化目录

最近更新的网站均包含一个可视化目录。通过该菜单，用户可以快速查看并选择产品系列。进入某个系列后，用户可通过各种标签页内容进一步探索该系列的更多功能。此外，用户还可以使用产品配置器根据自身需求配置部件。

3D 产品配置器

为了方便提供3D CAD文件或数据表，近期改版后的网站提供了可配置的3D模型，并附有可下载的CAD文件和数据表，这些文件和数据表均反映了所选的配置。

Select and change parameters in order of importance or desirability. Most series have parameters that can be configured: wheel diameters, tread types, fastenings, brake options, and more. Select your desired changes, and press "Update Model" to commit the changes. The rendered 3D model will update to reflect your choices. This interactive model can be used to view a representation of the chosen configuration. Not sure a particular wheel diameter or bearing are right for you? Easily make additional changes to your configuration - selecting "Update Model" to commit these changes.

Once configured to desired specifications, the chosen product can be added to a quote cart in any quantity. It is easy to add single or multiple SKUs to the quote cart. Users can quickly turn their quote cart into an active quote request; submit the quote request and a customer service representative will contact you with further information.

通过 CasterPass 下载 CAD 文件和数据表

除了请求报价外，还可以将配置好的零件以多种原生CAD格式下载，或下载为产品数据表。

You will need to be logged into the CasterPass system to download CAD models or Datasheets. You may choose to proceed as a guest; however, CasterPass accounts allow free and unlimited CAD and Datasheet downloads. Register to create your CasterPass account today. CasterPass accounts will work across all recently improved sites.

CasterPass is a separate entity from previous website accounts; if you have not created a CasterPass account on any Colson Group USA brand website, you will need to create an account - or continue as guest - to proceed with downloads. It is recommended that you are logged in prior to making configurators; this will often speed up the configuration and download process.

Once configured, select the tab that reads "CAD Models and Datasheets." There is a drop-down menu that provides multiple native CAD formats to choose from. A link will be present allowing you to begin the download. If you choose to download a Datasheet, select its link - all Datasheets will download as a PDF.

每个CAD文件和数据表均按需生成；最终下载链接的显示可能需要片刻时间。处理完成后，将显示一个链接，您可通过该链接下载包含CAD文件或数据表的ZIP文件；解压后即可查看。

展望未来

可视化目录和3D配置系统仅是我们网站升级的第一阶段。其他功能，包括产品筛选、便捷的SKU搜索，以及可分享且可自定义的项目看板，目前正在开发中，并将于2016年剩余时间及2017年陆续在各网站上线。敬请关注有关这些功能的更多消息和更新。
