ExactFlat Joins OnShape Partner Program To Bring 3D To 2D Flattening To The Cloud
ExactFlat flattening solutions for industrial fabrics, carbon fibre composites, and stamped sheet now available via the OnShape Apps Store.
TORONTO, Dec. 15, 2015 -- The leader in pattern and blank creation, partners with the leader in 3D CAD in the cloud
ExactFlat, a leader in 3D to 2D flattening software, today announces the availability of an integrated solution to bring their capabilities to the rapidly growing community of Onshape users. This combination:
* Merges the design and production automation of soft goods,
* Eliminates high upfront product and training costs associated with previous solutions,
* Allows everyone on a design team to work together via a web browser, phone, or tablet.
Increasing profitability for soft goods and stamped metal fabricators.
With the combination of ExactFlat and OnShape, manufacturers and fabricators of industrial fabrics, carbon fibre composites, and stamped sheet metal will convert their 3D design into patterns and blanks in minutes. This significantly improves productivity, reduces time to market and virtually eliminates physical prototyping cost.
Moving First and Fast
"We are delighted to be working with OnShape as they have a clear vision for the future of CAD, and a strong commitment to move first and move fast" said Eaton Donald, CEO of ExactFlat. "User innovation continues to inspire us as they find new ways to collaborate on the design and development of products. Our vision is to eliminate the barriers to innovation and we will continue to aggressively partner with other industry leaders to make that a reality."
Designers and Production Managers of companies fabricating Soft Goods or Stamped Metal parts can visit www.exactflat.com/onshape to learn more and test the solution. The ExactFlat Plugin for Onshape is currently in private beta. Manufacturers interested in participating in the beta testing program can request an invitation at onshape.com/app-store-beta.
Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
