THE FAST WAY TO PRODUCE PATTERNS READY FOR MANUAL CUTTING
• SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR
THICK PLATE!
• INCLUDES COMMON,
COMPLEX AND HEAVY
CONSTRUCTION SHAPES
• INSTANT FLAT PATTERNS
• FULL MANUFACTURING AND
WELD DETAILS
• AUTOMATIC & EASY!
• MULTI-LANGUAGE SUPPORT
• MICROSOFT WINDOWS
Nuts and Bolts:
Dynamic Display changes shape
as data is entered
Full 3D Viewing inc stereoscopic,
Plan, Elevation & Isometric
‘Cutaway’ feature lets you see
inside the development
Calculates Bend Lines, Forming
Angle, Longitudinal Seam Off-
sets and more
Every component of a construc-
tion can be viewed independently
Includes 2D Drawing System
Loft patterns directly from
printout
Tradesman in a Box™ is a
complete affordable solution
for the workshop that does
not have CNC machinery.
Take out the guesswork and
eliminate the need for
calculations!
Shapes can be completed in
a fraction of the time
manually lofted patterns
would allow and importantly,
they are fabricated “right first
time”.
Simply model the item in 3D
(you see the shape appear as
data is entered) and produce
output for manual lofting.
The system is sophisticated
but uses familiar shop floor
terminology making it
very easy to learn with ‘user
tips’ and a comprehensive
online help system.
With shapes covering most
thick development needs:
Common
Shapes
Complex
multi components
Common: Rectangle to Round,
Elbow, Pipe Branch, Lobster,
Multi Segment Cone, Oblique
Cone, Cone Bifircate, Plate
Branches.
Power Transmission: Chain
Sprocket, Universal Sprocket,
Rack and Pinion, Involute Gears.
Heavy or Complex
Transitions: Tapered & Trans-
forming Lobsterback Bends,
Offset & Mitred Transformers,
Conical Branches, Conical &
Tubular Runs, Simple & Complex
Birfircations.
Full welding
preparation details
Tradesman in a Box™ is for medium to heavy plate manufacturing
where the main joining technology is welding.
CO-ORDINATES FOR LOFTING OR USE WITH AN OPTICAL MACHINE
The system allows for multi
strake, variable thickness
construction with internal,
mean or outside data entry.
Full fabrication Dev. includes
Welds, Full/Partial Penetra-
tions, Fillet, Butt/Groove.
Highly accurate components
offer a marked improvement
in weld quality and
consistency resulting in better
fitup.

Seam Offsets
The detailed printout makes it very simple
to loft and cutout by hand, or printout at a
1:1 scale and use with an Optical
Machine.
