I need to calculate areas for the aluminum industry?

I suggest getting a 12x18 digitizing tablet and a copy of our Area Digi program for calculating the area of the cross section. We have new digitizers for $595 that will do this or used ones for $350. Free software with a digitizer sale. I have an automatic digitizer that will do the same thing but the cost is much higher. The cost for the 12x18 system is $2100. I also suggested you may want to consider a copy of our Tamplate Digi program that will allow you to digitize the aluminum cross section and save the image as a DXF graphics file for loading into Autocad. Much faster than trying to create the drawing in Autocad from scratch.
