Mesh Unfolder - Version 2.0

MESH UNFOLDER version 2 was released on 2 August 07. The demo version is uploaded for evaluation. This version is able to unfold 3D face surface models and polymeshes, including surfaces with 3D curvature and strain/deformation in unfolding. The curving surfaces are handled by finding the most even distribution of  stress in the material. Mesh Unfolder has wide application to all products manufactured from sheet material.

Mesh Unfolder - Version 1.0

MESH UNFOLDER was first released but not published in June 05. It hasnow received a general release having proved its worth for unfolding the most complex 3D surfaces. The product is able to unfold curvin 3D surfaces by equalising tensions to develop the flat pattern. Review the details of Mesh Unfolder details.

ELLIPSES & OVAL - Sheet Lightning Extensions

Sheet Lightning has special extension for generating elliptical, oval and complex curved section pipe and cone - with or without skew (oblique offset), Review these powerful unfolding software extensions on the following web page.
