Gerber Technology Launches "3D Direct"

Gerber Technology announces the launch of "3D Direct", a software solution for the transportation interiors market that will flatten three-dimensional (3D) design models to produce two-dimensional (2D) pattern pieces. The system is easier to use than other 3D-to-2D software solutions and accelerates, streamlines and automates the 3D-to-2D pattern design process.

"3D Direct" reduces the need for full size physical prototypes to derive flattened material patterns. Using highly advanced computer algorithms, "3D Direct" automatically flattens a 3D CAD model into the two-dimensional parts required for production, optimizing the pattern shapes for cutting. Designed to be within reach of …
