Milford, OH, February 15, 2005 — Applied Production, Inc. has published a new ProFold Demonstration and Training Guide for AutoCAD and KeyCreator. For companies who work with sheet metal parts, ProFold is completely integrated into AutoCAD, KeyCreator, and CADKEY. From installing and licensing to unfolding a sheet metal model in one operation, the demonstration and training guide is a must to get up and running using the ProFold software as quickly as possible. A variety of sample parts are used to illustrate several features of ProFold and give you a feel for how the program works. See for yourself just how easy it is to use ProFold and why ProFold is the preferred flat pattern development program.

"ProFold enhances the sheet metal capabilities of your CAD software. New software is a major investment.

About ProFold
ProFold simplifies the unfolding process, allowing you to draw the part in KeyCreator, CADKEY, or AutoCAD and quickly develop the correct flat pattern. By using the information already in a sheet metal model, errors are quickly eliminated. Engineers and designers use ProFold to create accurate flat pattern layouts faster and easier, saving valuable time and helping manufacturers meet tight production deadlines. Solid models are easily unfolded in ProFold Solids. Introduced in 1985, ProFold Wireframe was the first software to unfold 3D wireframe models in a CAD system. ProFold Wireframe also allows you to fold a 2D wireframe part. ProFold stores your material and bend parameters in a database and automatically applies this data to the bends in your part. An interactive tree displays all the bends of the part, allowing you to fine-tune the parameters for each bend.
