I tried making a film that can be perfectly attached to three-dimensional objects!
[Mitarepo] Challenging decoration without a pattern! I tried making a sheet that fits the shape of the work! | System Create
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" From the wide range of product genres handled by System Create, we deliver useful information each time. In Vol. 62, we tested whether we could create a film suitable for a workpiece with curves using "ExactFlat," which can unfold from 3D to 2D. There are various industries, such as automotive and interior design, that require patterns. To unfold from 3D to 2D, I believe you have been relying on the know-how that has been developed over time, but have you ever thought, "Isn't there a way to easily create patterns?" or "I want to unfold free shapes..."? Therefore, we challenged ourselves to directly unfold a workpiece with curves into 2D data and apply decorative film that fits the shape. By unfolding with ExactFlat, we can easily create data and also check for material distortion. In the materials, we will introduce the analysis of distortion and images of the film application. *You can download the materials from the button below.

We hope this serves as a helpful hint for those considering processing with composite materials or looking to make post-processing cleanup easier.
