Sheet Lightning is unfolding software for designing and unwrapping pattern developments for sheet metal designs. It combines an integrated parametric library and a full 3D CAD design environment. The parametric
design facility means designs can be created by simply loading a template design and typing in new dimension values. The 3D CAD environment goes further offering unlimited design capability. Designs
range from simple tees and bends to complex multi-intersection of any level of design complexity (see examples). It handles everything from simple cylinders, cones, rectangular ducts and ovals, to adapters,
adapting any of these section types, intersections between any of these types and multi-intersections of any
of these types. This enables it to handle breeches, lobster-back or segmented bend and very unusual or complex one-off designs. All pieces can have center line offset and oblique or skewed sections. The
program also has an increasing number of very powerful special design capability.
