3D Models in Under a Minute, No Login Required
The number of 3D models requested from Samtec.com has skyrocketed over the last few years. Our previous online 3D model tooling worked fairly well, and our internal support group was able to accommodate requests when it didn't, but being the connector industry service leader, we just weren't satisfied with the user experience and speed of that old tooling, and neither were a number of our web users. Because of this, one of our main goals with the website this year has been to beef up our … [Read more...]
