Unfolder

Unfolder is a 3D model unfolding tool to help you create papercraft easily and quickly. Workflow 1. Create a 3D model in any 3D software 2. Unfold the 3D model into a 2D template in Unfolder 3. Print the template out to make your papercraft by cutting, folding and gluing Importing and Exporting • Import 3D models in OBJ format • Supports materials and textures • Update the imported model anytime • Combine multiple documents • Export templates in PDF, DXF, or PNG format Auto-unfolding • Generate 2D patches for your 3D models in a few seconds • The algorithm is highly optimized for papercraft to minimize your effort in further editing Editing Patches • Move, rotate, align, and distribute patches • Split and joint patches easily by clicking the edges in 2D view or 3D view • Generate paper-saving layout automatically • Adjust the size of your papercraft by typing the dimensions you want Editing Flaps • Switch, add or remove flaps easily by clicking the flaps or edges in 2D view • Reshape flaps by dragging the handles intuitively or typing the angles and height precisely • Copy and paste the shape of flaps • Automatically detect and fix the flap problems, such as overlap and overflow Styling • Create your own linestyles and set the color, thickness, and pattern • Individually control the appearance of the cut line, mountain-fold line, and valley-fold line • Hide unnecessary edges manually or automatically Display • highlight overlapping or overflowing patches • show the flap target (the area where a flap should be glued to) • Takes advantage of Apple's Metal to provide excellent graphics performance Unfolder is ONLY compatible with: • iMac Pro models • iMac models from 2012 or later • MacBook models from 2015 or later • MacBook Pro models from 2012 or later • MacBook Air models from 2012 or later • Mac mini models from 2012 or later • Mac Pro models from late 2013
