In today’s fast moving business climate it’s evermore important to be able to communicate quickly and accurately between customers and suppliers. V and F Sheet Metal have addressed this need with the implementation of the complete Radan suite of CAD/CAM software.

3D software models of complex sheet metal fabrications and full assemblies can be generated to eliminate design errors before any sheet metal work is undertaken. 3D and 2D images can then be used to help you visualise your own designs for manufacturing suitability. Where you only have a sample we can produce 2D drawings to work to in manufacturing and for your future reference. These drawings can be output in AutoCAD compatible file formats DWG and DXF. We can also import your 3D data from AutoDesk Inventor and Solidworks software to speed up CNC program generation. 2D developments can be automatically and accurately produced ready for CNC tooling and nesting.

The use of Radan’s automatic sheet nesting capabilities enables us to quickly try out different CNC punching nests to evaluate the best material utilisation. Radan CAD/CAM software helps us to drive down cost which in turn is passed onto you.

All the CNC punching features that are available on our Trumpf 3000R and Trumpf 200R CNC punching machines is fully supported by our Radan CAD/CAM software.
