You can unfold 3D models into flat surfaces! "ExactFlat"

We will digitize pattern creation and reduce man-hours. *Demo available.

"ExactFlat" is a flat pattern software that unfolds 3D solid data into a 2D plane. It operates as an add-on to CAD systems "SOLIDWORKS" and "Rhinoceros." [Features] ■ Direct creation of pattern data from 3D models Since the 3D model's solid data can be directly unfolded into pattern data, there is no need to prepare physical samples or conduct prototypes. ■ Abundant material presets Material properties are stored in a database, allowing for the creation of corrected data that takes into account factors such as stretch ratios and fabric thickness by referencing the data. This enables anyone to create stable patterns without relying on experience or intuition. ■ Reduction of man-hours Pattern creation can be completed digitally, making it easy to verify and modify. This eliminates the hassle of repetitive rework, thereby reducing man-hours.

【Mitarepo】Cost reduction with automatic 2D unfolding from 3D data! I tried sewing cushions using pattern data created from 3D scans!

"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" We deliver useful information each time from the wide range of product genres handled by System Create. The theme of Vol. 29 is "3D Scan → 2D Sheet Development and Sewing Together!" In various industries such as aviation, shipping, and automotive, there are many products like seat covers and steering wheel covers that require patterns in the production process. However, translating curved surfaces into flat patterns is a challenging task that takes a lot of time and cost. This is where "pattern development software" comes into play, which can automatically calculate and unfold into a flat surface as long as there is 3D data. In this issue, we created and developed three-dimensional data that cannot be simply unfolded, following the contours of the human body through 3D scanning, and actually sewed it together! Can it be unfolded even with freeform surface shapes? Can the pattern data reproduce the original three-dimensional shape? We will explain the process of creating the unfolding data, along with images of the actual sewn backrest cover. *You can download the materials from the button below.

[Mitarepo] Challenging decoration without a pattern! I tried making a sheet that fits the shape of the work! | System Create

"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" From the wide range of product genres handled by System Create, we deliver useful information each time. In Vol. 62, we tested whether we could create a film suitable for a workpiece with curves using "ExactFlat," which can unfold from 3D to 2D. There are various industries, such as automotive and interior design, that require patterns. To unfold from 3D to 2D, I believe you have been relying on the know-how that has been developed over time, but have you ever thought, "Isn't there a way to easily create patterns?" or "I want to unfold free shapes..."? Therefore, we challenged ourselves to directly unfold a workpiece with curves into 2D data and apply decorative film that fits the shape. By unfolding with ExactFlat, we can easily create data and also check for material distortion. In the materials, we will introduce the analysis of distortion and images of the film application. *You can download the materials from the button below.

【Mitarepo】2D unfolding of the surface patterns of 3D models! I tried to see how it changes! | System Create

Mitarepo is a series based on the concept of "Trying out things like this!" where we introduce what can be done using various products. From the wide range of product genres handled by System Create, we deliver useful information each time. In Vol. 114, we examined how straight lines drawn on the surface of a 3D model change after being unfolded into 2D, by varying the position of the lines and unfolding them in three different ways. When printing cut patterns, it can be quite difficult to print the patterns together, right? That's where we introduce the flat unfolding software "ExactFlat for Rhino." It can unfold the textures of 3D models, allowing not just the shape but also the surface patterns to be converted into 2D patterns! The created data takes into account pattern alignment, material properties, and stretch characteristics! In the materials, the performance of the texture unfolding function is simply tested by projecting straight lines onto a three-dimensional surface and examining the changes. We will explain points of interest such as pattern placement and seam consistency, along with the relationship between the 3D model and the position of the lines, as well as images after the actual unfolding. *You can download the materials from the button below.

【Mitarepo】Unfolding 3D data to create "perfect" data!? Tried making a headrest cover | System Create

Mitarepo is a series that introduces what can be done using various products, based on the concept of "I tried doing this!" "ExactFlat for Rhino" allows you to create 2D pattern data from 3D mesh data. With a material database that takes into account the properties and stretch of materials, as well as automatic optimization for sagging and distortion, you can create perfectly sized covers from unfolding data! In previous Mitarepo episodes, we mainly introduced experimental validations, but can we properly unfold items at the implementation level? This time, to verify the capabilities of "ExactFlat," we actually created a cover for a car that includes curves! Can it reproduce curved surfaces? Can it be made to the perfect size? We will explain these points of interest along with the flow of how 3D solid data is unfolded into 2D data and the finish of the completed product. *You can download the materials from the button below.

You can unfold 3D models onto a 2D plane! "ExactFlat for Rhinoceros" is amazing.

Marsugo is a document that picks up the functions and features of various products and introduces the "amazing!" aspects. This time, we will introduce the software "ExactFlat for Rhinoceros," which can create flat layout data. With the spread of 3D data, the design of curves and surfaces has increased, making it even more difficult to unfold into 2D planes for products like covers. Creating sewing patterns requires a significant amount of time for prototyping, temporary assembly, and revisions, and it has relied on the experience and skills of the workers developed over time. The software "ExactFlat," which can be used as an add-in for Rhinoceros, allows anyone to create optimal 2D sewing pattern data from a 3D model. Based on the saved database, the system automatically performs calculations, so it is not affected by the skills of the draftsman. The document provides a detailed explanation of how to output sewing patterns, so please take a look. *You can download the document using the button below.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

This is an air leak tester for battery cases of electric vehicles (EVs). The battery case has the characteristic of being "large with a significant internal volume, and its structure may deform due to internal pressure." As a result, air leak testing generates "noise caused by its large size and capacity" and "noise caused by expansion or deformation due to internal pressurization." To mitigate this noise, this device features a newly developed smoothing function and a linear fitting correction function used in combination during measurement. Additionally, to achieve low-pressure control that is difficult to manage and to expand flow for large volumes, we provide a bypass box (CBU-600) equipped with an electro-pneumatic regulator for precise pressure control and a pressurization valve with a large effective diameter to supply high flow rates. Measurement methods: Work-Work comparison, Work-Master comparison, Fixed Master comparison Measurement pressure range: 10 kPa, 20 kPa, 50 kPa (depending on specifications) Gauge pressure sensor accuracy: ±2% F.S. Differential pressure sensor accuracy: ±0.5% F.S. Group settings: 0 to 31 groups Power supply voltage / Power consumption: AC100 to 240 V / 100 VA
