As manufacturers have gradually phased out printed catalogs, replaced instead by parametric search tools and downloadable PDF data sheets, there has been an outcry for something more. With that in mind, Illinois Capacitor has developed an on-line tool that allows engineers to create their own customized PDF catalogs. A catalog can include just the product lines of interest, a product category or even all product lines. Once the selection is made, it takes just seconds to build the catalog. The catalog can be saved to a drive or printed by the user.

Unlike traditional printed catalogs, the custom built Illinois Capacitor catalogs are always up-to-date, as the data sheets are generated on the fly from the company’s product database. And each catalog page contains live links to unique, generated data sheets on each part number. According to company Vice President, Michael Shade, “on most sites, it is a tedious chore to select and print out a series of data sheets for multiple products. With our new catalog generator, it’s easy and takes just seconds.”

The Custom Catalog Generator is the latest phase in an ongoing website development plan for illinoiscapacitor.com. Recently the parametric search was upgraded for even greater ease of use; the popular Life Calculators have been refined, along with many other incremental improvements. No registration is required to access the Custom Catalog Generator or the website.
