The foundation of a CAD/CAM system is its geometric modeling kernel.

At the heart of ZW3D is the second generation ZW3D engine. The ZW3D engine and database are truly high performance in every sense of the word. In independent benchmark tests of functionality, speed and robustness, ZW3D compares favorably against every CAD/CAM product available today --- regardless of price.
