Watch A New 24 Station BOX TERMINAL
Complex Strip Layout Video On Our Web Site
 
Summer Newsletter Pic 
We just finished creating a new 59 minute video demonstrating the creation of a 24 station strip layout from start to finish for the complex BOX TERMINAL shown above. We hope you find this video very helpful and interesting, whether you are a user (there is some advanced functionality demonstrated such as overbend and springback and relaxed springback) or simply interested in Logopress3 or die design in general.
 
Helping Die Designers To Be More Productive
Knowledge base picture 
Accurate Die Design's goal is to help companies and designers improve productivity by teaching and showing them how they can do their jobs better. While we sell, train and support 3D software for the tool & die industry, another important aspect of our business is the ongoing process in helping to inform and teach designers how best to utilize the software they have invested in and how to use it in the most productive way possible.  The Knowledgebase section of our website is full of great information for Logopress3 users (as well as information for non-users) with subjects like the following, which were added this summer:
  • Bill of Materials (BOM)
  • Ballooning options & BOM related tips and tricks
  • Balloon sorting & use of split balloons
  • Part # for file name? What are the benefits?
  • Help File Does Not Open
  • Identical Standard Components listed multiple times in the BOM
  • "Convert Splines into segments and arcs" command
  • Ditto - a great, simple & FREE clipboard extension for all computer users
 
These are just some of the newly added topics in the Knowledgebase section of our website. Do you want to become more productive and increase your company's profit margin?  It's a win, win for everyone to become more knowledgeable in what you do.
 
Graphics Systems User Conf
Come to the largest SolidWorks conference in the Midwest and experience in-depth technical and management sessions, learn about new technologies to improve your productivity and network with hundreds of SolidWorks users!
The Graphics Systems User Conference is designed for you, the user! Their presenters and their training sessions are focused on one thing: making you more efficient with your design tools.
Accelerate Your Design Process
and Minimize Development Time

Presented By: Ray Proeber, Logopress3/Accurate Die Design, Inc.
Learn how to speed up your design process by putting Hole Wizard holes in your models faster - and simultaneously include the fasteners - AND automatically pattern them! Also learn how to minimize development time by flattening difficult or complex shaped models and determine an accurate flat blank ahead of time. Finally, for those in the tool and die industry we'll show you how you can quickly create a strip layout and also see your die operating as if it were in the press.
Discover new SolidWorks techniques, evaluate complementary technologies and network with SolidWorks users to boost design productivity and gain a competitive edge! With more than 5 unique technical tracks and dozens of technical sessions you can develop a customized agenda to attend the specific presentations, demonstrations and workshops that relate most directly to your work. Expert SolidWorks users, SolidWorks product specialists and SolidWorks application engineers conduct a wide range of technical sessions to improve your individual design skills, resulting in greater contributions to your company's overall success.
