Hybrid Software’s BrandZ business unit has launched iC3D Suite 10.5, a real-time 3D packaging mockup solution aimed at improving design and production workflows for packaging professionals.
The latest update introduces several enhancements, including a new Artwork Layout Editor for flexible bags. This feature allows designers to adjust panel layouts within bag templates to align with production requirements. The editor offers precise control over dimensions and artwork alignment, making the bag creation process more efficient. Additionally, the update includes improvements to CLOUDFLOW, a 3D Workflow Automation tool, which facilitates seamless artwork replacement and ensures consistency throughout the design process.
A notable addition is the introduction of the “FLOUR” model in the Multi-Wall Bag Template, which replicates the design of traditional flour and sugar bags. This model allows for more accurate visualization of consumer packaging designs commonly used in the food industry. Along with these updates, several fixes have been applied to improve overall production workflows.
“We’re reaffirming our commitment to providing packaging professionals with cutting-edge solutions,” said Heath Luetkens, Sales Director of Hybrid BrandZ America and Business Manager of 3D. “These enhancements are designed to help users bring their creative visions to life faster and with greater precision than ever before.”
The iC3D Suite 10.5 aims to reduce time-to-market and address the evolving needs of the packaging industry. It will be showcased at the upcoming Pharma Packaging & Labeling event in Boston and Dairy Innovation in Copenhagen, where attendees can see the new features firsthand.
