“We’ve invested a lot of R&D resources in sheet metal module,” said Colin Lin, Director of ZW3D Overseas Business, “You’ll definitely embrace a much more user-friendly & productive ZW3D.”

 

High-Performance CAM to Boost Productivity

The CAM module in ZW3D 2017 beta comes up with lots of new handy functionalities, in a bid to improve the efficiency & reliability of CNC machining.

For example, the flat finishing operation is added to automatically detect all planes and generate tool-path accordingly at just one click, shrinking the programming time up to 50%; the milling and turning strategies can be simulated in the same environment, helping users intuitively analyze each manufacturing status to safeguard machining process…
