Description
A fitting is selected from a large template library with unlimited size adjustment, checked in a 3D view and turned into a 2D pattern, so even a newcomer to sheet metal work can start. Finished patterns are exported to DXF for nesting and automated cutting or to HPGL for plotter printing, and layout can also be done manually by X-Y coordinates or triangulation points. The job manager supports multi-level zones and copying of parts and zones. Shop standards are set up on the basis of SMACNA and DIN, including custom types of seams and joints, lining, insulation, sealant, stiffening ribs, turning vanes and hangers. The program produces a bill of blanks with sheet size calculation, a shop card, lists of lock rails and lining, fabrication sheets and consumption of metal, insulation, vanes, hangers and ribs.
