3DQuickPress v6.2.10 HotFix

3DQuickPress is a SolidWorks add-on for progressive die design. With a 3D solid model of the part, a 3D strip can be created quickly and easily, and also be communicated clearly throughout the work group using the free SolidWorks eDrawings viewer before further detailing of the die without time wasted.

Powerful Unfold
Powerful Unfold, a feature recognition technology, can handle native SolidWorks sheet metal parts for imported data, and provide a knowledge base for spring back and bend allowance. Form features can save valuable time from die designs and give them more design productivity tasks.
