Plugin for 3-D Visualizations and Simulations



ZW3D, a supplier of CAD/CAM solutions for the manufacturing industry, has announced that it has teamed up with SimLab Composer, a 3-D scene building and sharing programs, enabling the ZW3D user community to create high-quality visualizations and run dynamic simulation analysis.

SimLab Composer and ZW3D have developed a plugin engineered to provide a seamless connection, allowing users to access SimLab Composer directly in ZW3D's interface and utilize its full benefits. Plus, active links can be built to keep data in sync across ZW3D and SimLab Composer, a feature designed to avoid the trouble of reprogramming.

"This partnership gives our users a powerful toolset to create amazing visualizations and perform mechanism simulations efficiently," said Colin Lin, Director of ZW3D Overseas Business.

Benefits of ZW3D's integration with SimLab Composer:

  • Quick collision detection with complex Rigid-Body simulations: "With the Simulation Workbench in SimLab Composer, ZW3D users can quickly and accurately model, control and analyze simulations of dynamic mechanical systems using state-of-the-art engineering solvers," said a company spokesperson.
  • Easy sharing of designs with technical and non-technical users: Designers and engineers can generate 3-D PDF files and WebGL-based HTML files according to the users' 3-D models and export them to Android/iPad. Designs can be shared with everyone.
  • Better demonstration of design ideas with photo-realistic texture baking: Rendering algorithms are used in SimLab Composer to simulate shading, shadows and bumps on the surface (or texture) of a 3-D object, delivering users realistic-looking designs to materialize ideas for better presentation.
