PLUS Replicam – is a digitizing
software that helps you generate accurate drawings of complicated
shapes, quickly from digital images. It is an essential tool to
generate accurate CAD drawings for CNC cutting from digital images.
Start with a photograph of your template, calibrate the image in PLUS
Replicam, trace the outline of the shape automatically or manually and
save it as a DXF file.
PLUS Replicam can take you from
the Templates to Cutting table in Minutes. It integrates in your
workflow, as you can use the DXF output for further activities like
order entry, production planning and optimization and gain a
competitive edge.

PLUS Replicam
generates CAD drawing files (dxf files) with exact dimensions.
However complicated the shape of template is, Replicam traces it perfectly. Also you
can manually edit for any change in the shape. If there are some holes,
or cutout present within the template then they are also accurately traced by
Replicam. You need not worry about the dimensions or its position.

Templates need not be stored, take a proper digital photograph
and archive it.
PLUS Replicam helping you to avoid in
keeping template for later user , or taking care of it. Reason is that
once you create the CAD drawing (DXF) from the digital image of the template
as per procedure, archive that drawing with detail information. Whenever you need that template
to use for cutting, use the drawing files. In this way PLUS Replicam reduces
logistical problems of handling and storing odd sized template.
|
Basically templates from customers are used
to cut same type of glass shape. If this no of quantity to be cut is
in large no then use of template again and again decreases the
accuracy also . Instead of this Using PLUS Replicam if you create
dxf file then you can use that in nesting software or to provide in
glass CNC machine.
|
PLUS Replicam provides facility of tracing of
shape manually. In many cases user need to edit templates drawing.
You can use the Replicam as drawing package and edit or trace the
template shape.

PLUS Replicam always traces
the template shape in such way that number of segments are
minimized as much as possible and from that it creates the dxf file
which is best suitable for CNC machine as a output.
