As part of bringing the iris diaphragm DXF export files inline with the web output display, the Iris Calculator export feature now includes a number of updates:
- Slot profiles are displayed fully (in addition to their centerline’s)
- The complete blade / leaf array – with pins – are displayed in the assembly view
DXF Export
One of the Iris Calculator’s big appeals, is the ability to export your mechanical iris diaphragm components as DXF files. With this update, you now no longer have to manually draw and copy/rotate your slots. The slots are generated, and included as part of the iris DXF output.
