Sheet Lightning - Version 6 - Released Feb 2011
Sheet Lightning v 6 is here! With powerful new features including the ability to generate whole chutes (spiral and other) by simply typing dimensions, and most of all to import DXF files containing 3D center line
layouts (Pro Version) - automatically turning them into 3D intersecting pipes and cones, with intersection of any level of complexity.
Trevor Maddison, the company project manager has said - ‘Our purpose is to create affordable solutions for the whole market, not just large corporates. The pricing structure reflects the true spirit of
Revcad’s commitment to keep the little guy at the leading edge’.
This release includes a completely revamped parametric library and includes some special design features - such as a parametric designer for pressure vessels.
