ZWSOFT unveiled ZW3D 2021 Beta for testing. The new version brings extended functions for CAD design and CAM programming as well as better user experience, helping you tackle more complex tasks. 

Friendlier Interaction
In ZW3D 2021, user experience has been further improved with some small yet considerate new functions. For example, Command Search helps you quickly search commands by keywords, which is useful for unfamiliar functions. And for repetitive work, Script Record can help by recording the commands as a script, which can be set as a map key to quickly conduct the operation by one click next time. Moreover, the Cartesian Coordinate...

Xometry has unveiled its 2D Technical Drawing Marketplace, an innovative platform to expand access to prospective job orders for 3,000+ American machine shops.

The 2D Technical Drawing Marketplace offers engineers and designers the ability to get quotes from Xometry's network of highly-qualified U.S. shops -- including ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D-certified and ITAR registered facilities -- for projects which lack 3D files. Xometry will guarantee the quality of the work.

"COVID-19 has disrupted international supply chains, and our domestic machine shops are feeling pressure as well," said Randy Altschuler, CEO and Co-founder...

Tech Soft 3D announces that HOOPS Platform is being used to integrate 3D models into Proplanner’s Assembly Planner product to complete the triangle of data relationships that are critical to get right for complex engineering workflows. 

“Linking the process model to the 3D model was the goal,” said David Sly, president of Proplanner. “We get a 3D model from one source, we get an eBOM from another source, which is the basis of our mBOM and we generate a BOP routing which consumes parts from that mBOM while visually manipulating the 3D model. Those three elements of the...
