ZW3D 2018 Beta: Maximize Productivity of Design and Engineering Resources

ZW3D today announced the global availability of ZW3D 2018 Beta, which will improve the productivity of design and manufacturing with optimized details.

Part Library Design: Unified Part Management to Shorten Design Process

The upgraded CAD Library improves the workflow of prebuilt 3D CAD models. The renewed Library supports data from configuration or external Excel files. What’s more, a brand-new library loading panel provides a more friendly searching experience.

In a word, it helps accelerate the design process, reduce design mistakes, and increase productivity.

Data Exchange: More Convenient Than You Think

For years, lossless data translation has been one of the primary pursuits of ZW3D.

How to keep associated with the imported geometry to get the latest data? In ZW3D 2018, besides supporting the latest mainstream CAD data, new ”Associative import” function bridges ZW3D model and other 3D models, including CATIA V5, Creo, NX, SolidWorks and Solid Edge system, to make sure the imported 3D model is up to date.

The updated translator achieves the maximum reuse of 3D CAD data, making the cooperative work smoother.

More friendly Design Experience: Always be user-oriented, focus on simplified Design Operation

ZW3D emphasizes details, pursues perfection, and always stands beside the users.

ZW3D 2018 has great improvements in user experience, including a new file browser, different colors for entities and components, a number input box with default unit, and an “APPLY” button in most commands.

Flexible Direct Edit: Enable you to change what you want

ZW3D 2018 provides you with more flexible methods to adjust 3D model geometries and get robust modification results.

Using the new “Dimension Move Face” function, you can precisely move faces in a linear or angular dimension based on a stationary entity. And new “Face overflow” option provides three different types to control face move result.
