SketchCut PRO: Professional 3D Model Precision Cutting Tool for Designers

SketchCut PRO is a professional precision cutting tool tailored for 3D model designers, enabling efficient and accurate cutting of 3D models across architecture, interior design, and engineering fields. Designed to streamline the modeling workflow, SketchCut PRO eliminates cumbersome manual adjustment steps, making complex model segmentation and modification more intuitive and time-saving.

Three-Mode Precision Cutting for Diverse Modeling Needs

To start using this function in SketchCut PRO, first select the target model, then activate the cutting feature to access the quick cutting panel. Users can choose from three modes: automatic cutting, two-point cutting, and three-point cutting. For automatic cutting, SketchCut PRO intelligently generates cutting paths based on model contours; two-point and three-point cutting require clicking to set key points. After selecting the mode, switch to cutting mode (avoiding drawing mode which only marks lines), and complete the cut with a single click. The result is a precisely segmented model that maintains structural integrity, suitable for detailed design adjustments.

Oblique Cutting with Shift-Aided Direction Lock

When oblique cutting is needed, open SketchCut PRO and select the model to be processed. Move the cutting knife to the target inclined surface, then press and hold the Shift key to lock the surface direction—this ensures the cutting plane aligns with the oblique angle. Adjust the cutting position as needed, then execute the cut command. SketchCut PRO’s direction lock function prevents deviation, ensuring the oblique cut is smooth and accurate. This feature is critical for creating sloped structures in architectural models or inclined components in engineering designs.

Cutting Parameter Customization for Controlled Results

Launch SketchCut PRO and enter the cutting interface after selecting the model. Below the cutting mode options, users can customize parameters: toggle whether to flip the model during cutting, choose to retain or remove the cut part, reverse the cutting direction, and lock axes. Shortcut keys (up, down, left, right) allow quick switching between parameters. After setting, execute the cut. SketchCut PRO’s parameter customization ensures users achieve desired results without additional post-processing, enhancing workflow efficiency.

Target Selection Validation to Avoid Mis-Cutting

Begin by opening SketchCut PRO and navigating to the cutting module. The key step here is selecting the exact model to cut—SketchCut PRO requires the selected object to match the target cutting object. If not, the tool will fail to cut and may damage adjacent models. After selection, confirm the target in the preview window, then activate the cutting function. This validation mechanism in SketchCut PRO prevents mis-cuts, protecting the integrity of complex models with multiple components.

Quick Switch Between Cutting and Drawing Modes

Open SketchCut PRO and select the target model. Locate the mode toggle button in the upper right cutting panel: drawing mode and cutting mode. Click to switch to drawing mode to mark cutting lines on the model surface without separating it—useful for pre-planning. To execute a cut, switch back to cutting mode. SketchCut PRO’s seamless mode switching allows users to plan and execute cuts in one workflow, eliminating the need for external marking tools and keeping the design process streamlined.

Efficient Dust Management for Clear Operation Vision

When using SketchCut PRO for physical model cutting simulations, activate the dust management function first. The tool directs dust to a specific non-intrusive area, ensuring unobstructed visibility of the cutting area. After cutting, remove the dust collection bag with one click for quick disposal and reattachment. This feature in SketchCut PRO maintains a clean operation environment, allows users to monitor the cutting process clearly, and enhances the tool’s usability for long design sessions.
