The technology uses polylines and not images, which are limited by their bitmap resolution, to orientate the Laser vectors in the local coordinate system.įlexiBlast TM builds on GF Machining Solutions' signature blasting capabilities by combining them with a grayscale image, allowing controlling its intensity. It also offers the possibility to create curves virtually on complex 3D parts and molds with the LASER S range of machines.
3DCurves TM allows designers to create unprecedented designs applied in 2D with GF Machining Solutions' LASER P range of machines. This new technology is of great interest for the production of textures with lines requiring high precision, for example for plastic parts used in the ICT or the automotive industries, or for directly engraved parts in the watchmaking or jewelry industries. Users no longer need to go through a classical hatching process based on a grayscale bitmap, but thanks to 3Dcurves TM can engrave directly with a single continuous laser path following each individual polyline. 3DCurves TM enables a novel approach when creating fine line patterns and textures. The first new functionality of this release called 3DCurves TM allows users to significantly increase design capabilities while eliminating potential undesirable optical effects on laser engraved parts.
