M3 & M3 Art

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO REALIZE PACKAGING AND POP / POS DISPLAYS

What are M3 & M3 Art softwares?

They are specialized software for boxes and POP/POS Display. Supportive materials include folding carton, corrugated board and rigid board.

m3 is a complete library of parametric models and designs, specially designed for Valiani cutting machines. m3 is structured to give the possibility to modify, resize and cut boxes, displays and other 3D objects made with cardboard packaging.

m3 Art is a combination of features that allows graphic designers the flexibility to work directly in Adobe Illustrator using file boxes or POP / POS exhibitors and benefiting from their parameterization. Native m3 files can be opened in Illustrator without conversion and can be processed within the same work environment. Focusing on the visual aspect of the design process, m3 Art offers intuitive 3D prototyping and realistic visualization of the different types of material, printing and finishing. This integration allows graphic and CAD software to complement each other by increasing productivity without requiring any effort.

M3 Library of Packaging Designs

The m3 Library of resizable packaging standards comes with approx. 600 parametric designs for folding carton, corrugated board, grey board and PVC.

  • A parametric library available both in millimeters and inches
  • Integrated Index file with sections for different materials
  • Support of the ECMA and FEFCO standard designs
  • Resizing and automatic structural modification by parameter editing
M3 & M3 Art Archival Storage, Conservation Boxes
The M3 and M3 Art Library now also includes 50 templates for archival storage and conservation boxes

  • Clam-shell trays
  • Storage boxes
  • Envelopes
  • Multi-Side wraps
  • Slips cases

Avaible for both, m3 and m3 art

M3 Art Library of packaging design
The m3 ART Library of resizable packaging standards has accumulated around 2.300 parametric designs for folding carton and corrugated board, grey board or luxury boxes, rigid honeycomb board and PVC.
Together with the 200 patterns of displays, the user has over than 2500 available templates.
The full ECMA and FEFCO codes have been parametrized and included in the Library among many others. A parametric Library available both in millimeters and inches.
Luxury Boxes
M3 form version.9 supports grey board designs also known as luxury boxes. Luxury boxes consist of packaging materials that have been developed and tailored to give the goods a distinctive touch. These boxes are usually made with rigid material such as grey board and wrapped by a card of excellent finish to make them more appealing to customers, while still serving their purpose.
Some examples of

  • Body and Lid
  • Trays with Hinged Lid
  • Magnetic Closure boxes
  • Shoulder and Neck Boxes
  • Slipcase

M3 ART Library of Displays

The m3 ART Library of displays and multipart structures includes
around 200 resizable designs for corrugated board and rigid board materials. The 2D and 3D designs can be opened in the M3 ART CAD software or directly in Adobe Illustrator, where graphic designers can create the graphics and generate production files with high resolution images.

  • POP/POS structures come as free-standing displays, counter displays, walls, stands, furniture
  • Design recalculation takes place automatically after material thickness is changed. This minimizes design time and eliminates repetition-induced errors.
  • Multiple-material structures are featured
  • 3D folding sequences are integrated into display library designs for complete presentations. They can also be used for assembly instructions.

M3 ART Cardboard Furniture
M3 ART offers some unique templates for creating eco-friendly furniture, totally customizable in shape and finishes.
3D Presenter and the integration with Adobe Illustrator

The 3D module allows realistic visualization and proofing of the 2D structure and artwork of packaging and POP/POS displays. At every step of the creation process, the designer can see the changes apply in 3D and share the prototype with colleagues and clients.

  • Definition of the folding sequence, navigation and animation of the 3D model
  • Insertion of 3D parts for assembling multiple POP/POS displays and structures
  • 3D dimensioning
  • Realistic visualization of materials with their folded and cut edges
  • Generation of 3D animated PDF for easy sharing with customers

Integration with Adobe Illustrator

M3 ART packaging software is integrated with Adobe Illustrator*.
The plug-in lets graphic designers easily apply artwork onto structural drawings. Verifying the results in the 3D environment happens quickly and without efforts.

Opticrop

Crop mark detection software

What is Opticrop?

OptiCrop is the easy to use software, conceived by Valiani, to perform Contour Cut on pre-printed image. The software used in combination with ImageCut provides you with diagram to preview your contour cuts. This preview will even assist you in searching registration marks and export the artwork into your machine correctly.

How does it work?
Once the camera is positioned on the first registration marks, Opticrop automatically detect the 2nd, 3rd and 4th marks redrawing the artwork according to the position on the cutting table.
Retry mode is a time saving feature that allows the user to repeat the crop mark acquisition cycle should they not be found on the first attempt.
Hardware & Software

The machine mounted camera can read registration marks and detect the position of cuts on the machine’s table. OptiCrop has an advanced feature to allow you the redrawing of the artwork according to the print skew. This feature always ensures the maximum precision when performing the contour cuts.

What is the Contour Cutting?

Contour Cutting involves placing an outline around an object and makes the machine cut it.

With which R.I.P. software is integrated?

The software can import file generated by Caldera, Onyx e SAi.

Which file formats are compatible?

OptiCrop works with .SVG (Adobe Ill. o Corel Draw), .VXML e DXF Files

Color Recognition

Since OptiCrop works with vector files, it is possible to set-up plotting process using different pen colours on your art work. Using a black line the software will import the object as a cut. This feature also recognizes different colours and allows the user to set-up halftone colours in V-Studio.

Are registration marks plug-ins available?
Plug-in to add registration marks are available for both, Corel Draw and Adobe Illustrator.

myPro®

THE SOFTWARE FOR AUTOMATIC NESTING IN THE GARMENT INDUSTRY

What is MyPro® software?
MyPro ® is a software solution designed for automatic nesting in the clothing sector.

An easy-to-use solution, which allows the operator to be able to place his own existing patterns and / or placements directly on the material he will be cutting.

Marker-making takes place via drag and drop operation, on basic constraints previously set by the operator. The program also offers the possibility of positioning a pattern directly on the fabric, to then be exported directly to DXF AAMA / ASTM, HPGL or ISO. This program is the ideal solution for a testing phase of the files arrived from the pattern making department.

Within the program there is an important modification tool that allows you to manage the order of execution of the cutting of the pieces automatically or manually, so as to optimize the cutting path.
