30 JUNE 2022

This document contain the news about MACRO rel. 1.3 developed from us tailored on our customer needs.

More specifically, new functions and improvements and fixes of already existing macro will be introduced.

The macro that automates the creation of 2D sheet drawings for a list of STEP files

This command was created for subcontractors who usually recive a lot of STEP file and they must manually create the DXF to be cut. With this macro, it is enough to select the folder that contains 3D files, set the K factor and have a coffe break. When you will be back, each flat view will be ready.

The optimixed function to quickly create a slot in a bend zone, next to an hole

This macro is useful when there are some holes near to a flange: probably these hole will warp during the bend process. With just 3 clicks a small slot will be created in order to allow to holes to keep their original shape.

The function that allows you to add both the bend radius with 1 click

With this macro the user will be able to create both internal and external radius on the sharp edge of a bend. It will be enough to insert the internal and external bend radius and the thickness, then select the internal edge to create the couple of radius.

The really intuitive function that allows you to quickly convert a generic solid into one or more sheet metal parts

Our customer recive quite often files those should contain some sheet metal parts but they don’ t respect sheet metal propriety (same thickness, bend radius, reliefs..). With our macro, with few and simple and driven steps, you will convert the original solid into one or more sheet metal parts.
