Here you will find requirements and practical guidance for your CAD design.
This page brings together the most important resources for preparing production-ready files for laser cutting and press brake bending. Use the links below to review process-specific rules, drawing requirements, tolerances, file conversion help, and calculators.
Guidelines for Our Processes
- Guidelines for laser-cut parts: Rules for cut widths, small holes, bridge tabs, thread preparation, and other production limits for laser cutting.
- Guidelines for press brake bent parts: Bend-related design limits, hole distances, tool clearance, and geometric constraints that should be considered before production.
- Technical drawing example: A reference page for preparing PDF drawings for bent parts and documenting tolerances or notes that are not encoded in the DXF file.
- Standard tolerances: Reference tolerances for laser cutting and press brake bending, including dimensional and flatness standards.
- DXF converters: Help for converting source files into vector DXF format suitable for upload to the platform.
- Technical calculators: You can also use the imported calculator pages in this blog for bending calculations and flat-pattern checks: DIN 6935 bending calculator.
