Software module automates 3D file to NC code
- July 8, 2024
- Product Release
- Manufacturing Software
Jetcam Intl. has launched a new 3D Unfolding software module developed in partnership with AutoPOL. An optional extension to the Jetcam Expert system, the module is designed to streamline the process of converting a range of 3D CAD file formats into flattened 2D patterns across such industries as aerospace, automotive, and fabrication.
The module automates the flattening of 3D models during the CAD import process, handling simple profiles to advanced pieces with single-curved and free-form surfaces. It integrates with most CAD formats, providing outputs that are ready for production immediately.
