Hi Adam,

I don't have their CAM option as I have been using SprutCam. I won't comment on Sprut as it is another can of worms! As you mentioned, the hybrid modeling is the part of the program I really like as well.

I like SolidEdge but the yearly subscription fees are just to much for a person with an expensive hobby. Yes, trying to figure out what to spend the $'s on is a real challange.

Robert,

Yeah my days of dealing with mid-range modelers (SW, SE, IV, PTC) are over. There's a place for these products in manufacturing and design but it's not me.

I've found a reseller that I think I will be able to work with and get support from so I will probably give the ZW3D premium version a try.

Thanks for your input on this.

Hi Trill

I know that the post was long time ago. In case that there are friends are looking for the similar information, I would like to add the reply here.

Now ZW3D 2019 is being introduced with big enhancements for both of CAD and CAM. For instance, history reply is up-to 10 times faster, new flexible sub-assembly is available for complex assembly design, new voluMill has been introduced to increase machining efficiency with decreased tool cost. And here is the youtube channel, please take one or two minutes to have a brief update information.
