New 2023 ExactFlat Release:

New ExactFlat Features: 3D to 2D Digital Pattern Making

In this video, we are going to be covering the new features which are going to be available in the upcoming release of ExactFlat. This time ExactFlat workflow will be applied on a automotive seat. Now, with the new 2023 release of ExactFlat for Rhino 3D we've updated our software to be faster and more efficient than ever before. First, we've updated our 3D to 2D flattening (up to 20x faster), which means that if you've got a big project, with lots of parts, you can knock it out in record time. Our new export controls and expanded cutter support cover a larger variety of CNC cutters. We've also improved our seam development and notching tools so that you can develop and apply seams and notches faster than ever before. Be the first to learn more, and check out the new, faster, easier to use features in the new 2023 release of ExactFlat for Rhino 3D.
