FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Empowering Manufacturers with High-Performance 3D Sales Tools
How do Zea’s 3D product configurators help manufacturing companies in Montreal and across North America ?
Manufacturers in industrial hubs like Montreal, Toronto, and the US Midwest face growing demands for rapid customization. Zea Configurators allow your sales team to provide instant, visually accurate quotes without waiting on engineering. By localizing the digital sales experience, you can shorten sales cycles and compete globally with the agility of a digital-first manufacturer.
Why is Zea Engine considered the best 3D configurator for large industrial assemblies ?
Unlike standard web tools like Three.js, Zea Engine was built specifically for CAD. It is the only web-based 3D engine capable of rendering assemblies with over 20,000 parts—such as heavy machinery, aircraft, or complex vehicles—directly in a browser at VR-ready framerates. This means your customers experience zero lag, regardless of how complex your product is.
Does implementing a 3D configurator require us to share our proprietary CAD files ?
No. Security is a core Zea brand value. Our “Secure by Design” workflow ensures that your original CAD files never leave your workstation. Zea Sync processes your data locally, extracting only the lightweight visualization data needed for the configurator. You maintain 100% ownership of your intellectual property while providing a world-class user experience.
Can Zea Configurators integrate with our existing ERP or CRM systems ?
Yes. Our configurators are fully customizable via a robust Javascript API. This allows for seamless “Configure, Price, Quote” (CPQ) workflows where real-time pricing from your ERP can be reflected instantly as customers toggle options. This connectivity ensures that what the customer sees is always aligned with your current inventory and production rules.
Do my customers need to download any plugins or apps to use the 3D viewer ?
Not at all. Zea is built on WebGL 2.0 technology, making it “zero-install.” Your 3D product configurator will work seamlessly on any modern web browser, tablet, or smartphone. This friction-free reach is essential for modern B2B sales, where ease of access directly impacts conversion rates.
How does a 3D digital twin configurator improve after-sales service ?
A Zea Configurator creates a “digital twin” of the exact product ordered by your customer. This configuration data can then be passed to Zea Parts or Zea Illustrations, allowing you to provide a serial-number-specific parts catalog or custom maintenance manual. This “single source of truth” reduces support calls and ensures your customers always order the right spare parts.
