3-axis milling and turning

ZW3D 3x Machining3-axis CAM with the complete CAD.

ZW3D 3x Machining combines the complete CAD with 2- to 3-axis CAM: over 40 strategies, QuickMill for even finishes, SmoothFlow adaptive feed and turning, with 4- and 5-axis milling and VoluMill as add-on modules.

What you do with ZW3D 3x Machining

Over 40 3-axis strategies

Roughing, rest machining and finishing on surfaces and molds, with QuickMill for an even, mark-free finish.

Adaptive feed

SmoothFlow adjusts the feed rate along the toolpath to protect the tool and shorten cycle times.

The complete CAD included

Hybrid modelling, surfaces, assemblies and direct editing to prepare models, fixtures and electrodes.

Associative and verified

Toolpaths follow the changes to the model, are fine-tuned with the editor and checked with solid verification.

For those who machine molds and surfaces

Mold makers, tool makers and machine shops that machine complex shapes: ZW3D 3x Machining programs everything, from the prismatic part to the mold, with the CAD to prepare the model in the same program.

With VoluMill roughing becomes up to 5 times faster, and with the 4- and 5-axis module you can also machine the most complex parts.
