Do You Offer Downloadable Parametric Models?
If you are a manufacturer of architectural products like furniture, bath fittings, sanitaryware, light fittings, modular kitchens or refrigerators, you might sell more products if you offered downloadable 3D models of your own products.
Interior designers who want to use your product need to know if they fit in the locations they want to put them in. The designers could download your 3D models, place them in the 3D model of the space they are designing and check if your products fit in the intended space. Also, once they place your model in its intended space, they can block off the usage area of your product and not attempt to place anything else there.
In the ideal case you would make parametric models of your products available. A parametric model is a model that comes along with a sort of spreadsheet. If you change the numbers in the spreadsheet, the drawing changes accordingly.
For instance, one cell in the spreadsheet could contain the length of the object. If you changed the number in that cell, the length of the object would automatically change. Sure simpler than modifying the model yourself!
Many manufacturers already offer downloadable parametric models because it makes designing with their products easier than with products of manufacturers who do not offer parametric model downloads.
Give parametric downloadable models serious thought… because they could lead to some serious business!
To your success,
