Export 2D Part Projection

This feature was introduced in version 6.0.0.

This module allows you to export one or more parts as 2D projection(s) in one operation.

This can be done from three places:

  • From Parts List, to export all parts.

  • From a group of the Parts List, to export all the parts of the group.

  • From the part's properties dialog, to export edited parts.

Each part will be exported in a separate file. All the files will be placed in the directory named after the part's material and thickness (or section).

Configuration

Supported Formats

Cutting diagrams can be exported to files with the following formats:

  • SVG :

  • DXF :

Export options

  • Unit : Defines the unit used in the exported file.

  • Projection : Define the viewed face of the part : 2D Front View or 2D Rear View.

  • Anchor point : This options preserves the location of the coordinate axes of the SketchUp component of this part in the exported file (Project the part's origin). Otherwise, the smallest coordinate of the bounding box is used as location of the origin of the coordinate axes (Default).

Smoothing : Smooth circles and arcs. Learn more.
  • Merging Mode : Learn more

    • Default : The part shape is exported with one layer per depth.

    • Outline + Drillings + Merge : Activates the separation of the outer contour of parts from their holes, as well as the merging of depths for each cavity.

  • Paths : Enables the use of edges, which are not associated with a face contained in the part, to export them as a path. Learn mode.

  • Parts colors : Customize the line and fill (SVG only) colors of exported parts.

  • Drillings colors : Customize the line and fill (SVG only) colors of exported part's drillings.

  • Paths colors : Customize the line color of exported paths.

  • Scalable Vector Graphics

    Export Part Drawing

    This feature was introduced in version 6.0.0.

    To meet different uses, OpenCutList allows you to simply export the part drawing in 2D (CNC, laser cutting, ...) or 3D (3D printers, ...).

    Even if SketchUp already allows you to export the drawing in 2D or 3D, doing it using OpenCutList greatly simplifies the operation:

    • No need to change the model view

    One file per part with batch processing

  • Custom origin

  • Advanced 2D projection options

  • Export 2D Part Projection
    Export 3D Part Geometry

    Export 3D Part Geometry

    This feature was introduced in version 6.0.0.

    This module allows you to export one or more parts as 3D geometries in one operation.

    This can be done from three places:

    • From Parts List to export all parts.

    From a group of the Parts List to export all the parts of the group.

  • From part's properties dialog to export edited parts.

  • Each part will be exported in a separate file. All the files will be placed in the directory named after the part's material and thickness (or section).

    Configuration

    Supported Formats

    The 3D geometry can be exported to files with the following formats:

    • STL : Stereolitography

    • OBJ : Wavefront OBJ

    Export Options

    • Unit : Defines the unit used in the exported file.

    • Anchor Point : This options preserves the location of the coordinate axes of the SketchUp component of this part in the exported file (Project the part's origin). Otherwise, the smallest coordinate of the bounding box is used as location of the origin of the coordinate axes (Default).
