Delcam CRISPIN unveils new software
06/12/2012
The updated ShoeMaker product is used to make 3D footwear models for design and marketing reviews. New functionality includes user-defined flattening for offset concept lasts, improvements to the last import with automatic detection of the centre lines, and better control for the positioning of image stencils, including a three-point alignment tool. There is a new flattening parameter file editing tool for adjusting specific aspects of the flattened formes, plus some additional fine controls to change the shape of the flattening.
Engineer Pro helps users to produce 2D sample and graded footwear patterns. New functionality includes single click boundary, a new way to create boundaries where a left-click in a closed area creates a boundary from the enclosing lines. An option has been added to the radius/chamfer function allowing a radius to be quickly added to any intersection of a part. There are also improvements to the speed in which the boundary, chain and join functions are used, and an easier way to convert corner points to curve points.
UK-based Delcam CRISPIN supplies CADCAM software to the footwear industry, which is used to design and manufacture lasts, uppers and soles.
