Descripción
AutoDXF is an add-in for Autodesk® Inventor® (versions 2018 to 2025) that simplifies the workflow with assemblies that contain sheet metal parts. It allows you to easily collect all sheet metal components, automatically create and preview flat patterns, export the list of sheet metal parts to Word, identify any issues with flat patterns and batch export them to highly customizable DXF or DWG files or 3D STEP files.
The installer contains different version of AutoDXF: v4 for Inventor 2018 to 2021, v5 for Inventor 2022 to 2024 and v6 for Inventor 2025.
AutoDXF features:
- Full compatibility with Inventor 2025 (v6)
- Automatically find and list all sheet metal parts in assembly
- Batch export of flat patterns to DXF or DWG files
- Batch export of flat patterns to STEP files (v6)
- Batch export of 3D models to STEP files (v5, v6)
- Create material list (v6)
- Quickly export individual flat patterns using AutoDXF directly from the sheet metal part environment (full version only, v5, v6)
- Quickly find and open specific sheet metal component
- Identify flat pattern status of sheet metal parts
- Automatic creation of flat patterns and their thumbnails
- Automatic detection of threaded holes. When exporting to DXF those can be placed on a customizable separate layer
- Optional automatic creation of points or crosshairs in centres of threads when exporting to DXF
- Automatic detection of holes based on their size. Those can be optionally placed on a separate layer when exporting to the DXF format (v5, v6)
- Optional automatic creation of points or crosshairs in centres of holes when exporting to DXF (v5, v6)
- Add customizable text data to DXF files
- Writing of bending angles and directions on bending lines in DXF files (v5, v6)
- Creation of bend marks at the starts and the ends of the bend lines (v5, v6)
- Rotation of Flat Patterns
- Rotation along longest edge and rotation along longest bend
- Automatic flipping of flat patterns so most of the bends are in up or down direction
- Flip flat pattern
- Use number of bends as parameter for file names and DXF text descriptions (v5, v6)
- Flexible DXF, DWG and STEP file naming
- Use custom iProperties for building file names, DXF text data and Word table
- Set layer names, colours, line weights and line widths
- Exporting list of sheet metal parts including thumbnails to Microsoft Word
See web documentation for AutoDXF v6 to overview the full functionality of the program.
Note: This app uses a custom installer (and not the standard App Store installer).

A brief summary of the major changes and new features in AutoDXF v6:
6.0.1. 2024-07-11
------------------
- New option to create bend marks along entire bend line but with specified offset from the contour. Useful for some press brakes such as Amada.
- Added new option to set line type for bend marks.
- New option for force processing DXF files even if no processing option is selected. This results in much smaller (up to 10x) file sizes.
- Bend marks now adjust their length if the bending line is too short.
- Fixed error when creating bend marks if IV_BEND and IV_BEND_DOWN layers are not selected for export.
6.0.0. 2024-04-10
------------------
- Full code migration to .NET8 to ensure compatibility with Inventor 2025.
- New system of presets that handles saving different combination of DXF processing settings, layers and file naming. Easy transfer of settings to other computers.
- New material list functionality.
- New export option for exporting 3D STEP models of folded models.
- New export option for exporting STEP files of flat patterns.
- Support for new unconsumed construction layer export.
- Some settings moved to menu system to declutter the user interface.

We love your software, we had a very large sheet metal assembly, would have taken 5 hrs to flat pattern and export! Completed in minutes. We built a spreadsheet, drop in the Word table and it calculates total material of each thickness, works great!
Best thing since sliced bread!!!
có phiên bản nào cho INVENTOR 2020 khôngHello, please use AutoDXF v4. It supports Inventor 2018-2021: https://apps.autodesk.com/INVNTOR/en/Detail/Index?id=4251401247038357009 ;
Our sheet metal fab shop gets a tremendous amount of value out of this tool. Just the amount of time our engineering team saves by using the auto-flip tool in the latest update is WELL worth the price. If you do frequent sheet metal assemblies in Inventor this tool is essential!
