Esko ArtiosCAD 22.07

ArtiosCAD is the world’s most popular structural design software for packaging design. With dedicated tools specifically
designed for packaging professionals for structural design, product development, virtual prototyping and manufacturing,
ArtiosCAD increases productivity throughout your company.
ArtiosCAD is the ideal product for all corrugated, folding carton and POP display designers.

2D Design

Create new and unique designs in seconds from scratch or by using the extensive library of folding carton and corrugated

styles.
Create reusable, parametric designs using simple drafting tools.
Integrate graphic design files into the CAD design file.
Vectorize edges in any graphic to produce an outline around elements in the image.

3D Design

Powerful 3D design tools enable quick folding of the final folded design for even complex designs with curved creases.
Control fold angles and mating of multiple design elements for quality control inspection of folds, tucks, flaps, inserts

and fitments.
Visualize the assembly and folding sequence of designs, create assembly instructions and assembly animation movies.
Create 3D models of primary product such as cans, bottles, glasses and bags.
Create exact fitting packaging around imported 3D models or 3D models created directly in ArtiosCAD.

Interoperatability

Import Collada, CATIA, ProE, STEP, SAT, IGES or SolidWorks 3D solid models from other 3D modeling programs directly into

ArtiosCAD to directly create packaging based on the imported product, part or assembly.
Adobe Illustrator Import plug-in enables native ArtiosCAD ARD files to be imported into Illustrator maintaining the

ArtiosCAD layers and information and provides dedicated tools to preserve CAD data within Adobe Illustrator.
Adobe Illustrator Export plug-in will allow exporting graphic information directly to ArtiosCAD. This helps structural

designers create CAD files that follow graphic outlines - particularly important for designers of displays and folding

cartons, where the final package die cut must often follow specific graphic features.
Import and export native PDF files to ArtiosCAD based on PDF libraries licensed from Adobe Systems.

Manufacturing

Automatically calculate sheet layouts that have minimum production costs.
Quickly create quality die boards and coating blankets from a sheet layout for flat and rotary dies.
Automatically generate ejection rubber profiles for a cutting die.
Automated layout of rubber profiles optimizes the cutting layout using a powerful nesting tool that balances sheet usage

with element grouping.
Create the complete design of individual counter plates automatically.
Quickly design top and bottom stripping sets as well as the front waste separator.

Database

Full relational database allows for easy and flexible searching for and design criteria, including custom user fields.
Create reports that ‘automatically’ format themselves based on the items and information required including 3D

thumbnails.
Create automated bill of material reports that can be generated on multi-part design projects with the click of a button.
