LITIO2 - 3D Sheet metal unfolding soft
-
Version
2.0.1
LITIO is a sheet metal program that calculates flat
(unfolded) sheet development of ducts, rectangle to
round transitions, cylinders, cones, pipe
intersections, connections, bifurcations, elbows,
etc. For HVAC, hoppers, cyclones, dust extraction,
ducts, conveying systems, silos, piping, etc. To draw
your sheet metal developments directly in AutoCAD
R2000 and later (no need of DXF convertions). Steps
of use: First select the 3D surface you want to
unfold. (You can select: either inside, outside, or
mid cross sectional dimensions and/or height
specifications; to draw or not the 3D surface, and
the unfolded sheet as a mesh [to help you when
bending the sheet] or as 2D contour [to ease
cutting]; the precision of the calculation of the
developments). Metric Units/Imperial units: the
program automatically sets the units according to the
units used in the current drawing session. After
finishing the input of parameters, the program draws
the 3D object and the respective development.
Afterwards, you can use the 2D developments for CAM
cutting (plasma, laser, etc.) or manual
cutting, by plotting them 1 to 1 (1 d.u. = 1 mm or 1
d.u. = 1 inch), and using them to mark
sheet and cut.
