​
Win more deals with tools that empower sales engineers to close business
​
Give your sales engineers the tools they need to respond to customers quickly, collaborate on quote requests and mock-up design proposals—without having to call the design office. The flexible design capabilities of Zel X can be used as a standalone solution, or as an integrated complement to your existing computer-aided design (CAD) tools.
Easily deploy and access, anywhere
Access our browser-based solution instantly from any device. Enhancements are automatically rolled into the product without expensive, time-consuming upgrades
Access advanced tools, at low cost
Don't pay more for overly complex, overloaded tools. Get easy-to-use functionality that's right for your business, without the costs of hardware and IT overhead.
Scale with integrated tools
Replace the many tools you would otherwise buy separately with a single solution: Zel X — this means less administration and more seamless integration.
Create a wide variety of product types
​
Create accurate 3D models, including sheet metal parts and assemblies. Export G-code, DXF profiles, drawings and parts lists for manufacture. Both designers and sales engineers can quickly create designs, modify existing models, and make changes to proposals, with easy-to-use CAD tools matched to their abilities.
​
Plan, execute, track and communicate shop operations
​
Get a clear view of manufacturing tasks, both the operator work-list level and the status across the shop floor. Define job stages and tasks, and open CAD/CAM parts in the Shop Operations environment. Edit numerical control (NC) code with color-coded syntax. Templatize your manufacturing approach for standardization.
​
Manage and collaborate on product data efficiently
​
Easily view and update the lifecycle status of the files in your projects. With “where used” indication, find where specific parts are used across your business. Automatically create unique part numbers, and revise designs based on a preferred scheme.
​
Test and validate designs before they are built
​
Reduce risk by virtually testing design proposals. Avoid recalls with a quick-compute visualizer to check design strength. Check for over-engineering in a variety of models to reduce material costs.
​
Source off-the-shelf parts and automate quote requests
​
Source millions of off-the-shelf parts from global suppliers. Retrieve CAD models for use in your designs. Access supplier information for part pricing and ordering. For custom out-sourced parts, use an automated request-for-quote (RFQ) tool to contact multiple suppliers privately for the most competitive quote.
