ZVerse provides CAD as a Service to digital manufacturer Forecast 3D
ZVerse Inc. has joined forces with Forecast 3D, one of the world's fastest-growing digital manufacturers, to provide ZVerse's CAD as a Service platform to the manufacturer's customers.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — ZVerse Inc., developer of the only CAD as a Service (CADaaS) platform for digital manufacturing, has joined forces with Forecast 3D, one of the world's fastest-growing digital manufacturers, to provide ZVerse's CAD as a Service platform to the manufacturer's customers.
This strategic partnership gives Forecast 3D customers direct access to the CADaaS platform on the Forecast 3D website. The deal makes ZVerse's AI-enabled system and network of certified 3D designers available to customers of Forecast 3D. These design services include creating a 3D file from an idea or 2D image, optimizing an existing file for manufacturing, or scanning an object and creating a guaranteed manufacturable file.
"Customers often hit roadblocks to manufacturing when their files are not manufacture-ready. ZVerse will complement Forecast 3D's in-house design team, making it even easier for customers to quickly get 100% guaranteed manufacturable 3D files," said John Carrington, founder and CEO of ZVerse. "Forecast 3D has long been at the forefront of adopting new technology. We are pleased that our CADaaS platform is now among the solutions offered to its customers."
Carlsbad, California-based Forecast 3D was founded in 1994 by brothers Corey and Donovan Weber.
"Customer service is fundamental to the company's growth and ongoing success," said Ken Burns, vice president commercial for Forecast 3D. "ZVerse's CADaaS dovetails perfectly since customers using the service never leave the Forecast 3D online system to gain a seamless customer experience. ZVerse CADaaS helps us earn new customers and decreases our customer acquisition costs."
Forecast 3D recently made a list of the largest additive manufacturers in the United States. Its services range from its proprietary ProCAST RTV urethane casting process to multi jet fusion, PolyJet, several other 3D processes, CNC, hybrid tooling and injection molding. ZVerse CADaaS can provide guaranteed manufacturable files for any of the processes Forecast 3D offers at the scale needed for one of the fastest-growing digital manufacturers.

FLIR Si1-LD - Industrial Acoustic Imaging Camera for Compressed Air Leak Detection
The FLIR Si1-LD is an easy-to-use acoustic imaging camera for locating and quantifying pressurized leaks in compressed air systems. This lightweight, one-handed camera is designed to help maintenance, manufacturing, and engineering professionals identify air leaks faster than with traditional methods. Built with a carefully constructed array of MEMS microphones for high sensitivity, the Si1-LD produces a precise acoustic image that visually displays ultrasonic information, even in loud, industrial environments. The acoustic image is overlaid in real time on a digital image, allowing you to accurately pinpoint the source of the sound, with onboard analytics which quantify the losses being incurred. The Si1-LD features a plugin that enables you to import acoustic images to FLIR Thermal Studio suite for offline editing, analysis, and advanced report creation. Field analysis and reporting can also be done using the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. Transferring of images can be managed via memory stick or USB data cable. Through a regular maintenance routine, the FLIR Si1-LD can help facilities reduce their environmental impact and save money on utility bills.
