3D Sheetmetal Tool Descriptions
There are installation instructions in the README file and also a copy of the General
Public License provided in the zip package. The secure payment/download buttons are
located at the end of this page.
ADF : Add Flange. This program generates a flange attached to the edge of a base frame
produced by BSE or any edge of a previously generated flange. Any view that allows
picking the edge lines and any UCS can be used. User variables store the material
thickness, bend radius, angle and flange type. These values are stored with the drawing,
so that a file may be closed and re-opened to resume work without re-entering values.
Internal flanges are also supported. This program is commercial software. The source
code is not available for this program.

BSE : Base. Draws a 3D rectangular frame to be used with ADF for sheet metal models.

3DR : 3D Rectangular frame. To be used for internal openings in bases or flanges created
with BSE or ADF. The edges of the frame created with 3DR can be used by ADF to create
internal flanges.

3DD : 3D Diameters. Draws wireframe cylinders of specified diameter and of material
thickness height.

3DT : 3D Trim. Will trim lines at intersections with lines or arcs in any view or UCS.
Requires an actual intersection (within a very small tolerance).

CAV : Check All Vectors. For Icad V4 only. A special tool to display vector directions
of all edge lines (of length greater than material thickness).

CVEC : Change Vector. Used to display and optionally reverse the vector direction
of individual line entities.

DAP : Delete All Points. Deletes all point entities in drawing.

FZX : Flip Z axis about X axis.

FZY : Flip Z axis about Y axis.

U2 : Set UCS to two intersecting line entities.

UE : Set UCS to arc or circle entity.

VU : Set view perpendicular to the XY plane of the current UCS.

( The following tools are described in the Free Tools section.
They are included in this group because of their great utility
in 3D work. )

BK, ELA, LLA, V1, V2, V5, V7, V9


These tools are offered only as a group for a single distribution fee : USD $40.00
