Sheet Metal Design Services — DXF Flat Patterns & Drawings

Guenzo designs sheet metal parts and assemblies that are ready for laser cutting, punching, bending, welding and powder coating. We provide bend-ready 3D models, DXF flat patterns, and drawings that match real-world manufacturing tolerances.

Who this service is for

  • Companies building industrial enclosures or frames
  • Electronics companies needing chassis and brackets
  • OEMs working with laser cutting and bending suppliers

Problems we solve

  • Sheet metal models built without proper K-factor — flat patterns are wrong
  • Suppliers quoting high because of unclear or impractical geometry
  • Bend collisions, missing reliefs, unreachable welds
  • Inconsistent enclosure families across products

Deliverables

  • SolidWorks sheet metal parts with correct K-factor
  • DXF flat patterns for laser cutting / punching
  • PDF manufacturing drawings (bend lines, hole tables, GD&T)
  • Weldment and assembly drawings
  • STEP and Parasolid exports
  • Material and gauge recommendations

Software we use

  • SolidWorks Sheet Metal
  • SolidWorks Weldments for frames
  • DraftSight / AutoCAD for DXF cleanup
  • STEP / Parasolid for neutral exchange

Supported manufacturing methods

  • Laser cutting and fibre laser
  • CNC punching
  • Press-brake bending
  • MIG / TIG / spot welding
  • Powder coating, anodising, zinc plating

Example projects

  • Industrial electronics enclosure for laser + bending
  • Sheet metal chassis for a machine or workstation
  • Brackets and mounts for production lines
  • Conversion of welded structures into bolted sheet metal assemblies

Process

  1. Inputs: Sketches, components, target supplier, material and finish.
  2. Bend-ready model: Sheet metal model using correct K-factor and bend radii.
  3. Flat patterns: DXF exports for laser and punching.
  4. Drawings: PDF drawings with bend tables, GD&T, BOM.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you design parts for sheet metal production?

Yes. We design parts using sheet metal best practices: correct K-factor, minimum bend radii, relief cuts, and DXF flat patterns matched to your supplier's machines.

Do you provide DXF flat patterns?

Yes. Every sheet metal part is delivered with a DXF flat pattern and a PDF drawing showing bend lines and hole layout.

Do you work with companies outside Latvia?

Yes. We work remotely with companies across Europe and internationally. Most projects are run by email, video calls, and shared cloud folders.

What CAD file formats can you deliver?

Native SolidWorks (SLDPRT, SLDASM, SLDDRW), STEP, IGES, Parasolid, STL for 3D printing, DXF for laser/waterjet/sheet metal, and PDF manufacturing drawings.

Can you sign an NDA before we share project details?

Yes. We routinely sign NDAs before reviewing concepts, sketches, or existing CAD data.
