Proliner Unfold is a flattening software for curved glass, which is able to determine that the bending does not exceed the elasticity limits. Moreover, holes on the surface of a measured glass object can be preserved easily.
Accurate measurements are of fundamental importance in the glass industry to avoid expensive waste of glass, such as glass for cars, ships, windows, etc. All measurements should therefore, be precise. The digital measurement device, the Proliner, is the solution to end inaccurate measurements permanently. With Prodim’s glass solutions flat and curved glass can be measured easily and precisely. It does not matter whether you measure a normal window, a ship or car windshield, a complex shaped frame, an architectural opening, a shower cabin space or backsplashes of countertops; the Proliner can measure it all.
Prodim Unfold is a flattening software for curved glass. After the measurement, a digital file of the measured object is automatically created and can be checked on the Proliner. This 3D model can be exported and saved as an IGES file. To unfold the 3D drawings of double curved shaped objects into 2D unfolded shapes is just a matter of one click. The material properties of the measured objects are thereby taken into consideration. Thanks to the intuitive CAD functions, the 2D model can be optimized and the resulting DXF file can be immediately sent to the glass cutting table.
Because of a built-in control check, containing a FEM analysis, the software is able to determine that the bending does not exceed the elasticity limits. Moreover, holes on the surface of a measured glass object can be preserved easily.
Prodim Unfold is a unique software for curved glass makers, and is an extremely powerful software is fast but at the same time simple and easy to use.
