Press Release Summary: Ultimate CAD software tool generates custom perforated
pattern designs based on virtually any digital image document

Press Release Body: Aucad Drafting Limited announces the release of Image2Punch
Genesis 1.0, CAD software that may be used to convert virtually any digital image
into a perforated pattern design. The perforated pattern design can then be
converted into DXF/DWG file for many purposes, either in design and development or
in manufacturing processes.

In the design stage, for example, a user can use the perforated pattern that has
been converted into DXF/DWG format to create a digital perforated sheet metal as an
integrated component of 3D presentation.

In the manufacturing process, the converted perforated pattern design can be used as
a tooling layout to generate G-Code file. The G-Code file can then be used to create
a physical custom perforated sheet metal using a CNC Machine such as Turret Punch or
Laser Cutting machine.

Unlike the common perforated sheet metal which usually has a uniform pattern,
Image2Punch Genesis lets a user create a custom perforated pattern based on the
image document. The physical perforated metal, based on the custom perforated
pattern using Image2Punch Genesis, can be applied in real world applications
including architectural products, agricultural equipment, cabinet making products,
sanitation equipment, pollution control devices, lighting, sound suspension and
other possible applications associated with perforated pattern sheet.

Image2Punch Genesis comes as a free licence software product. The user may download
and use the software for free without having to pay the licence. A small CAD
conversion fee will apply if the user wants to get the CAD file format of the
perforated pattern design. In short, the user only pays for the result, not the
software licence.

Samples of perforated pattern designs and further information are available from the
