Packfold

BlenddON in Rigging


                                    

Packaging Folding & Visualization Tool for Blender

Turn 2D packaging dielines into fully controllable, animated 3D packaging — without manual modeling.

PACKFOLD is a Blender addon built for packaging designers, 3D artists, CGI artists, and anyone working with folding cartons, display boxes, shippers, and other paperboard packaging.

Instead of manually rebuilding a dieline — creating panels, setting origins, building an armature, weighting bones, and positioning artwork by hand — PACKFOLD takes you from a 2D DXF dieline to a clean, foldable, animated 3D package in one workflow.

Five modules, full control over every stage:


1. Cutting Dieline:

Convert your 2D DXF dieline into a clean 3D mesh — no manual modeling.

Import your dieline and generate 3D geometry that's clean, organized, and ready for folding.

  • One-click DXF → 3D mesh
  • Adjustable mesh subdivision
  • Precise fold placement
  • Slit/lock cut support
  • One-line cut-through support
  • Adjustable slit thickness

CLEAN MESH CREATED IN SECONDS NO MODELING NEEDED !


2. Folding System:

Build a smart folding rig in a blink.

Select one face. PACKFOLD reads the connected panel structure and generates the entire folding armature automatically — no manual rigging, no manual weighting.

  • Automatic armature generation from a single selected face
  • Smart panel relationships and hierarchy
  • Ready-to-animate rig, instantly
  • One-click reset and regeneration


LOGIC FOLDING SYSTEM GENERATED IN ONE CLICK !


3. Fold Mode:

Take full control of every panel.

Once the rig exists, fold, open, and position the package directly from intuitive per-panel sliders — and keyframe any of it.

  • Individual panel fold sliders
  • Full Folding and Rest Fold presets
  • Fully keyframeable for animation
  • Build assembly, opening, and closing sequences
  • Snap back to flat anytime


FOLD YOUR PACKAGING SEAMLESSLY WITH SLIDES CONTROL 

4. Panel Curver:

Simulate curved paper — non-destructively.

Real packaging isn't always flat. Select a panel, dial in curvature, and set direction — without touching the base geometry.

  • Non-destructive curvature
  • Positive and negative curve values
  • Horizontal or vertical curve direction
  • Edit or remove anytime, no rework

Ideal for curved top lock, rounded cartons, display structures, and stylized packaging shots.


SIMULATE PAPER CURVATURE WITH NON DISTRUCTIVE WORKFLOW

5. Extra Options:

Production-ready finishing, without leaving the addon.

  • Thickness — realistic paper/board thickness, from thin stock to heavy cardboard
  • Bevel — adjustable width and segments for edge highlights that read as real material
  • Auto Artwork Fitting — your artwork snaps to the generated dieline automatically, no manual UV work
  • Corrugated Cardboard Texture — one-click texture, automatically fit to shipper and corrugated geometry
