Export Blanks and Section Contours in DXF Format (3-D SM)

Sheet Metal > Sheet development > DXF Section contours

Sheet Metal > Sheet development > Extras > Complete

When exporting a blank as a DXF file, you can

• use the DXF Section contours function to save only the section contours, i.e. the marked bend zones and angles are not taken into account
• use the Complete function to save the blank together with marked bend zones and angles.

The procedure is the same for both functions:

1. Specify an edge of the contour which you would like to save.

The standard dialogue window for saving a file opens.

2. Specify the path and file name and confirm with OK.

The section contour is saved as a DXF file in the SZENEN (=drawings) folder.

If you have created the blank with settings for, e.g. LVD, Bystronic or Lantek Flex3d, these parameters will be considered for the DXF export.

(1) Section contour
(2) Complete

Please note:

In sheet developments threads are saved as sub-parts. This structure will be taken into account for DXF exports.
