Extrumat is a powerful ExtrusionPower module that automatically generates a 3D extrusion die model from a 2D extrusion die drawing. It runs without user interaction and delivers results in anywhere from a few seconds to 2–3 minutes, depending on die complexity.
Easy to use, ideal for novice users or those without a die-making background. Changes are made in 2D and the 3D model is quickly regenerated. Just 10 different layers are enough to build the entire die. With automatic transfer of transitions from 2D to the 3D model, you can finish transitions in just 1–2 minutes.
Extrumat is a powerful ExtrusionPower module that automatically generates a 3D extrusion die model from a 2D extrusion die drawing.
Building the 3D model involves many repetitive modeling steps that have to be redone every day for every die. Extrumat performs these steps automatically and very fast, saving you time.
Extrumat only works with PTC Creo Elements/Direct Modeling CAD software — its direct-modeling architecture is better suited to extrusion die modeling than other CAD software.
If you model two dies a day, it saves around 30 minutes per die — roughly 3 full days a month in total.
Extrumat always produces a 3D model; the completion rate depends on the definitions in the 2D drawing and model complexity. The more that's modeled automatically, the less manual work remains.
Depending on model complexity, it takes between 5 seconds and a few minutes. For example, a solid die can complete in ~20 seconds, a bridge die in ~2 minutes.
No. You don't need 3D modeling knowledge — you just need a clean drawing (no overlapping lines, closed contours) organized into layers.
AutoCAD DXF/DWG format and Creo Drafting's MI format can be used. Since Extrumat recognizes contours through layers, correct layer structure matters.
