SigmaDEVELOP
Powerful Parametric HVAC/Duct Shapes at your Fingertips
Create Shapes Easily, Flatten Accurately
Create duct and HVAC shapes quickly and easily with SigmaDEVELOP. Our proprietary unfolding technology will flatten your shapes quickly with accurate material-based dimensions.
SigmaDEVELOP is Customizable and Integrated
Batch files can be used to automatically create a group of parts and be exported to a flat CAD file or be directly integrated with SigmaNEST to nest the parts. Open source shape code allows for customization of parametric shapes to user preference.
- Directly create shapes from SigmaNEST for one-click nesting
- Export bend lines and shape information into DXFs, CSVs, or reports
- Group parts together for Bill of Material and quantity organization
- Leverage batch commands for fully autonomous shape creation

Effortless Part Creation
- Expandable library of hundreds of shapes organized into categories
- Live 3D preview while editing a shape provides detailed views of the workpiece
- Seam placement tool and pre-built seam library ensures seals and connectors meet specifications

Unparalleled Integration
- Utilize built-in SigmaNEST integration for seamless HVAC/Duct part import into your workspace
- Export 2D and 3D flat patterns for use in SigmaNEST or other systems for fluid data exchange
- Automated batch processing for part creation, unfolding, and exporting increases throughput

Manufacturing-Minded
- Automatically add bend lines at customizable intervals for bend alignment or shorten them to etch more quickly
- Leverage material-specific, K-factor based unfolding for accurate flat patterns
- Group pieces as assemblies to easily organize quantities, job names, and multi-body parts
