More productivity
Design, simulation and machining in the same program: no file transfers between different software, and products on the market sooner.
CAD/CAM/CAE
Design machines, plants and parts and machine them in one program
ZW3D is the all-in-one CAD/CAM, easy to learn, that takes you from concept to production: machine and plant design with large assemblies, weldments, piping and wiring, solids and surfaces, molds, sheet metal and 2- to 5-axis CAM.
Why ZW3D
Costs under control
Perpetual licences and a single platform from CAD to CAM: you pay only for the functions you need and add modules as your needs grow.
A smooth switch
Opens Catia, NX, Creo, SolidWorks and Rhino files; with tutorials and our direct support you change CAD with minimal effort.
Which ZW3D is right for you
Seven editions, from simple data exchange to complete CAD and CAM. Choose by what you make.
Automotive parts and data exchange
ZW3D Lite
High-quality import and export of Catia, NX and the other common formats, with minimal training costs.
Discover this edition →Consumer goods and design
ZW3D Standard
Skeleton and top-down modelling, G3 surfaces, simulation and photorealistic rendering.
Discover this edition →Molds
ZW3D Professional
From mold design to machining: analysis, parting, mold bases, standard parts and direct editing.
Discover this edition →Industrial machinery and equipment
ZW3D Advanced
Components, assemblies, structural analysis and 2D drawings, with modules for sheet metal, structures, piping and wiring.
Discover this edition →2-axis CNC machining
ZW3D 2x Machining
2- and 2.5-axis milling and turning: recognises holes, slots and steps and generates drilling cycles and milling toolpaths in a few steps.
Discover this edition →3-axis CNC machining
ZW3D 3x Machining
2- and 3-axis milling and turning with many strategies, customisable post-processors and the CAD to prepare models and fixtures.
Discover this edition →All CAD and CAM functions
ZW3D Ultimate
The complete CAD of Advanced, with molds, sheet metal, piping and wiring, and the CAM of 3x Machining. 4- and 5-axis milling is added as a module.

Solids and surfaces together
Hybrid and parametric modelling in the same model, surfaces with G3 continuity and direct editing for non-parametric models.
Your customers' files
Opens Catia, NX, Creo, Rhino and neutral-format files directly, and repairs open edges, duplicate faces and the other defects of imported models.
Molds and electrodes
The whole plastic mold process: manufacturability analysis, quick parting, standard mold bases, electrodes and automatic drawings.
Sheet metal, structures and simulation
Sheet metal, weldments, piping and wiring, with static, modal, thermal and fatigue structural simulation to check the part before the prototype.
...to CNC machining
2-axis and drilling
Holes, slots and steps recognised automatically to generate drilling cycles and milling toolpaths in a few steps.
3-axis and Volumill roughing
Over 40 3-axis operations, QuickMilling for even finishes and Volumill for roughing that shortens cycle times and uses the full flute length of the cutter.
4 and 5 axes, turning
Indexed and continuous 4- and 5-axis machining, also on STL files, with Swarf, Drive Curve and Flow Cut; internal and external turning, threading and grooving.
Associative and simulated
Toolpaths follow the changes to the model, are fine-tuned with the toolpath editor and checked with full machine simulation.
