Many PSM save in Flat Pattern

Many PSM save in Flat Pattern

Many PSM save in Flat Pattern

(OP)
I have several PSM I want to save them into Flat Pattern (DXF). Open each file to do the conversion takes a long time. Is there a way to do this step faster.

Thank you

RE: Many PSM save in Flat Pattern

maybe a new computer will help you .

good day everyone

RE: Many PSM save in Flat Pattern

Hi,

I'm not aware of any quick method. i.e. without opening the PSM and selecting the up surface and XY point.

I would think it was possible with a VB add-on, but I'm not aware of any that are commercially available free or otherwise.

Although Sheet Metal is a large part of SE and IMHO is possibly the best. It does lack a few key production procedures that would help Sheet Metal end users

There is a possibility that there is a Cad/Cam programming systems that integrates with Sheet Metal and speed up the process..........
