Newly-released ZWCAD Mechanical SP2 Features Easier Standard Part Customization

ZWSOFT today officially announced the new service pack for ZWCAD Mechanical. The main improvements of ZWCAD Mechanical SP2 are easier standard part customization and design environment migration. With enhanced parts library and new style sharing tool, designers can freely customize parts and drawing standards based on specific needs, and share to design team to speed up model creation and enhance collaboration.

Manage Standard Parts Flexibly with Customizable Parts Library

ZWCAD Mechanical SP2 optimizes the function of the built-in standard parts library. Designers can easily edit and set the desired scale, size and property to customize their own standard part, which will help them better respond to the changing industrial requirements. SP2 also allows designers to create new parts and group them into different categories within the parts library, offering an easier and efficient approach to manage their parts. Designers will enjoy the efficiency associated with the use of the customizable parts library that provides them flexible customization of standard parts and a streamlined design workflow.

Optimize Team Productivity and Accuracy with Style Sharing Tool

The new style sharing tool in SP2 allows mechanical teams to better collaborate and deliver more accurate designs. Most of the configurations including customized parts, layers and label settings can be exported to a style configuration installation package. By installing this package in another workstation, the configurations of ZWCAD Mechanical SP2 will be automatically synchronized. Working in the same design environment, the efficiency of collaborative design can be greatly improved since the drawing styles such as text, label and table style are in line with each other. Moreover, the same style configurations will enable designers to directly use drawing from other team members without any adjustment, therefore reducing the risk of human error that could always be possible with manual adjustment.

Besides the customizable parts library and style sharing tool, ZWCAD Mechanical SP2 has other enhancements that provide a customizable and flexible workflow such as the newly-added circle mark settings. To learn more information about ZWCAD Mechanical SP2, click here to download the release note.
