Turn objects into sketch blocks and create new objects by inserting blocks and quickly changing their sizes.
What’s ZW3D?
ZW3D is an easy-to-learn, all-in-one 3D CAD/CAE/CAM solution that can take you through the entire product development journey from conception to production.
Harnessing the power of design, simulation, and manufacturing, ZW3D helps you build better products faster at less cost. Whether you are a small workshop or an enterprise organization, ZW3D has your needs covered with complete, powerful features including solid-surface hybrid modeling, structural simulation, 2-5 axis machining and specialized tools for sheet metal, molds and more.
All your needs are in one place—the right 3D design-to-manufacturing solution for you.
Why ZW3D?
Improved Productivity
Integrate design, simulation and manufacturing into a single program to streamline workflow, and bring your products to market faster.
Reduced Costs
Get the most of your money. From product design to manufacturing, everything can be done at a lower cost.
Smooth Transition
Outstanding CAD interoperability, comprehensive learning materials and responsive support help you switch to the new CAD system with minimum effort.
Features
Sketch Block
Geometry Healing
Analyze and quickly repair abnormal conditions (e.g. open edges, gaps, duplicate faces, intersection loops) found in the geometry of imported files.
Layer Manager
Quickly sort and organize model features in 3D: easily arrange layers via the Category attribute; control and edit layers with the Filter and Select Object in Layer functions.
Customize Features
Create one feature with all features of some geometries so that you can easily reuse features and avoid repetitive work.
Intelligent Design Tools
Raster images can be embossed on the surface of your model nice and quick with the Emboss command. Morph and Winding can be used for objects, surfaces, and STL models.
3D BOM
The attribute information of all parts can be displayed in rows and columns of a 3D BOM, edited, and directly exported to 2D engineering drawings.
Flexible Sub-Assembly
By changing the degrees of freedom of the sub-assembly in the general assembly, you can continue changing the sub-assembly components with DOF in the general assembly.
Gear Generator
It can quickly generate spur gears, bevel gears and worms and wheels as parts or assemblies and customize parameters at all levels.
Automatic Annotation
Efficiently generate linear/diameter/radius/hole dimensions and so on with all the objects in a view or annotate the selected objects.
PMI Annotation
You can add annotations to the 3D model. All the PMI objects can be listed in the view manager and directly exported to 2D engineering drawings.
Sheet Metal Design
Complex sheet metal design can be completed with Bend, Loft, Louver, Punch, etc. The imported files can be converted into sheet metal parts for unfolding, bending, or design. The advanced FastBlank functions allow you to generate the unfolded effect.
Reverse Engineering
Prepare point cloud data for surface generation by deleting, trimming, dividing, simplifying the imported point cloud. A perfect mesh can be created from the processed point cloud and automatically converted into a NURBS surface.
