Unlike engineering modeling software like ZW3D, which is used in technical and industrial fields, 3D sculpting software is typically employed in creative 3D computer graphics domains such as design, gaming, and filmmaking. With software for 3D sculpting, you can easily create realistic character models, construct stunning virtual scenes, and truly bring your imagination to life—all […]
In today’s design industry, one tool has become nearly indispensable for designers at work: the 3D viewer. Unlike 2D viewers, which only display flat images and documents, 3D viewers support various 3D file formats and offer a dynamic and immersive experience. These tools can be used for a range of applications, from 3D gaming and […]
From April 22 to 26, ZWSOFT, a leading provider of all-in-one CAx (CAD/CAE/CAM) solutions, participated in Hannover Messe 2024, the world’s leading industrial trade fair for industrial innovation and global industry trends. The company demonstrated its advanced CAx solutions through a series of dynamic live presentations and panel discussions. Under this year’s theme, “Energizing a Sustainable Industry,” Hannover Messe 2024 drew over […]
When working on 3D projects, it is crucial to select appropriate 3D file formats to avoid compatibility issues or data loss. The key to selection lies in how you plan to use your 3D model. For example, a compatible 3D printer file format is essential for 3D printing, while for video games, it is better […]
Home design software can be helpful for those who are looking to design or redesign their home. It enables people to visualize their home design ideas as well as make informed decisions about the layout, color scheme, furniture placement, and other design elements. Whether you’re a home designer or a beginner, here we round up […]
As technology advances, 3D printing has become widely applied in industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and design. In 3D printing, there is a standard file format—STL files, which can simplify data structures while enhancing the efficiency of design and production processes. It is compatible with nearly all 3D printers and design software. If you are […]
Higher versions of AutoCAD can open older DWG files, but not the other way around. For instance, AutoCAD 2017 cannot open DWG files from the 2019 version. However, not everyone has access to the latest version of AutoCAD. Besides, upgrading to the higher version may involve additional expenses. If you receive a CAD file created […]
How to view STL files for 3D printing and additive manufacturing? As a standard format, STL are generated by CAD software to describe the surface geometry of 3D models. Given such technical applications and requirements, STL files cannot be directly viewed. Instead, they need a tool called an STL viewer. Desktop software, online tools, and […]
STL, an acronym for STereoLithography, is a 3D file format to represent the surface geometry of a model. It typically consists of small triangular facets. Therefore, an STL editor allows you to add, delete, or manipulate triangular meshes to meet design and technical requirements. In CAD design, meanwhile, an STL file editor can optimize geometry […]
