Vcutwork ^new^ Jun 2026

The industry is currently undergoing a digital revolution. New software (like Esko Automation Engine) allows designers to import a 3D model (Collada or VRML) and automatically generate the Vcutwork folding lines. Machines can now read QR codes printed on raw sheets to automatically adjust the V-cut depth based on the scanned thickness of the board.

This allows the sheet to be folded inward (creating a tight, acute angle) or outward. The result is a fold that is rigid, clean, and free of the "buckling" associated with scoring thick materials. In essence, turns brittle boards into flexible, foldable structures. vcutwork

For structural Vcutwork , you usually leave 0.3mm to 0.5mm of material uncut. For example, in a 2mm grey board, you cut 1.7mm deep, leaving a 0.3mm paper hinge. If you cut too deep, the hinge rips. If you cut too shallow, the fold is stiff and cracks. The industry is currently undergoing a digital revolution
