CABINET VISION xShaping
What is CABINET VISION xShaping?
CABINET VISION xShaping is a powerful module within the Hexagon CABINET VISION suite, designed to give manufacturers total freedom to create, edit, and manage intricate shapes in cabinetry, furniture, and custom woodworking projects. xShaping lets you parametrically shape assemblies, parts, and routes using both simple and advanced constraints—making it possible to handle virtually any design challenge, from standard cabinetry to unique reception desks and casework with complex geometry.
Key Features
Parametric Assembly Shaping:
Apply shapes and modifications at the assembly level, enabling quick changes across entire projects or product lines.
Parametric Part Shaping:
Precisely modify and control the geometry of individual parts, such as adding notches, curves, or custom cutouts for plumbing and electrical requirements.
Route Shaping with Constraints:
Fully parametric control of routes (e.g., dadoes, grooves) using advanced constraints, ensuring modifications adapt as designs change.
Edit from Room Level:
Make geometry adjustments directly from the room or elevation view for exceptional speed and flexibility during layout.
CAM Editor Access:
Add and modify operations for machining—including holes, recesses, dados, cut-outs—within the CAM Editor for seamless manufacturing integration.
Exploded Assembly and Reports Views:
Easily create exploded views for assembly documentation and use Report Views to trace changes for manufacturing.
Save and Reuse Library Parts:
Save custom-shaped parts to a library for future projects or replace standard parts with DXF or library files for unmatched design consistency.
Split and Combine Parts:
Split parts for manufacturing ease or combine assemblies for unique elevations and design presentation.
Benefits
- Design Beyond Right Angles: Tackle sloped walls, angled floors, or advanced customer requirements with ease—xShaping is built to address real-life, irregular shaping challenges.
- Seamless CNC Integration: All modifications are immediately reflected in manufacturing data, supporting accurate part production and error-free CNC programming.
- Greater Customization and Flexibility: Accommodate last-minute client changes or on-site adjustments without backtracking; xShaping empowers you to modify any part, assembly, or route as required.
- Operational Efficiency: Drastically reduce manual editing and rework through parametric constraints and intelligent shape propagation across assemblies and parts.
- Consistent Quality: Save your best custom shapes and use them across different projects for efficient, high-quality production.
Real-World Applications
- Kitchen cabinets and vanities with notched ends or cut-outs for pipes and electrical conduits.
- Reception desks or retail casework with curved, radiused, or bent fronts.
- Complex wall units for commercial and office spaces that follow non-standard architectural lines.
- Custom storage or closet solutions for angled attics, slopes, or irregular corners.
