ZW3D - All-in-one, affordable CAD/CAM

ZWSOFT is a leading CAD/CAM software developer based in China with offices around the world and development centres in Shanghai China and in Florida USA. They have been developing CAD/CAM software products for almost 20-years and with over 320,000 customers around the globe for their ZWCAD product, ZWSOFT is a major influencer in the mechanical, design and tooling CAD/CAM sectors.

DWE Systems is proud to be a partner with ZWSOFT for their innovative al-in-one ZW3D CAD/CAM product in Australia and with our experience in the engineering and 3D modelling environment and with our network of offices able to offer customers the high-end features of this leading software, at an affordable price with all of the support and after-sales service expected with the purchase of a professional CAD/CAM package.

ZW3D is cost-effective CAD/CAM software for 3D modeling, mold design, and machining, which takes engineers from concept to finished product in one easy-to-use, single collaborative environment. Supported by its Show-n-Tell™ built-in learning system, ZW3D includes data exchange to allow efficient reuse and sharing of designs, hybrid modeling with its unique Overdrive™ kernel, mold and die design with cavity preparation tools and component libraries, and intelligent, adaptive CNC machining from 2-axis through to 5-axis.

Powerful data exchange

• Directly read many 3D CAD software formats, such as NX, SolidWorks, CATIA, Creo, and Inventor.
• Support 3D exchange standards, including DWG, STEP, IGES, ACIS, DXF, Parasolid, SAT, and STL.

• Export models in PDF and raster images.

Productive Hybrid Modelling with Direct Edit

• Seamlessly work with 3D solid, surface, and wireframe models.
• Enjoy design flexibility with hybrid modeling.
• Quickly and easily edit all imported geometry through direct edit.

• Generate smooth surfaces with freeform surfacing and dynamic shape morphing.

Flexible Assembly Design

• Deal easily with large assemblies using ZW3D Burst™ technology.
• Validate and animate assemblies with built-in motion simulation.

• Simplify design work with a large amount of standard parts from PartSolutions™ library.

Fast 2D Sheet Production

• Quickly lay out drawing views, add dimensions, and generate BOM tables.
• Instantly create associative sections and detail views.

• Access built-in translators for leading CAD formats.

Whole Process Mould Design

• Split any 3D model, not just solid models.

• Rapidly create parting lines and faces, cores, and cavities using a variety of flexible methods.
• Employ many kinds of standard mold bases, such as DME, HASCO, LKM, and MISUM.
• Speed up preparation time through multiple electrode extraction.

• Instantly create associative sections and detail views.

• Access built-in translators for leading CAD formats.

Efficient 2-5X Milling and Turning

• Increase machining efficiency with integrated CAD.
• Dramatically reduce programming time through automatic hole tactics.
• Generate powerful milling functions with 2-axis to 5-axis machines.
• Improve productivity by 30% through QuickMill™ technology's efficient roughing, rest-roughing, and quality of milled surfaces.

• Employ the new turning module.
