ZVerse Announces Launch of Digital Manufacturing Enablement Platform
A Category-Defining Technology for Digital Manufacturing and OEMs
Columbia, SC— December 16, 2020 — ZVerse today announced the next generation of their Digital Manufacturing Enablement (DME) platform, an AI driven workflow solution to eliminate time consuming and disparate activities around the design to manufacture process. Featuring an unparalleled user interface and advanced algorithms, the platform's tools enable manufacturers to assess, measure and communicate part and related design information with the multiple constituents involved in product development and manufacturing.
"OEMs across almost all manufacturing verticals including industrial, automotive, consumer durables, aerospace and beyond will benefit from ZVerse's groundbreaking technology and user experience to solve problematic roadblocks that cost time and money in bringing products to market," said David Craig, President at ZVerse, Inc.
Defining Digital Manufacturing Enablement
As digital manufacturing becomes a more strategic imperative for OEMs seeking to speed products to market, ZVerse delivers on this key objective with a category-defining solution that creates agile processes between design and manufacturing teams. The DME platform allows OEMS to reduce the number of design iterations, engineering change order and cost requests, automates and scales 2D CAD file to 3D models, and assigns part manufacturability at the material, process, and machine level.
"ZVerse has a deep understanding of DFM and the challenges that interfere with a smooth handoff between product development and manufacturing teams," said Graham Bredemeyer, Head of Platform, ZVerse. "We've defined a whole new space and solution for information gaps that impede the digital manufacturing process."
About ZVerse
Founded in 2013, ZVerse created CAD as a Service (CADaaS), providing manufacturable 3D CAD files to service bureau customers. Beginning in March 2020, in response to the demand for PPE due to COVID-19, ZVerse leveraged its DME solution to design and produce a highly successful line of American-made face shield products. Winner of a 2020 Fast Company Innovation Award for its ZShield face shield design, ZVerse has provided millions of ZShields to frontline workers, educators, restaurants, and the community at large making the company one of the largest face shield providers in the USA.

Featured Product
T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
