PlateDXF
Every mounting plate meant the electrical department raising a request and waiting for a designer to open SolidWorks, model it and export a DXF. PlateDXF removes that loop: they enter the plate parameters and get a correct-scale, editable DXF directly. Dimensioning and PNG export were added on their request after the first release. Built test-first, with the geometry covered by a passing suite so a scale error cannot reach the laser.
