Make a tapered cup or vessel sticker and sleeve template
Enter the tapered cup or vessel geometry, define the label band with any two of the three vertical fields, preview the sticker or sleeve on the surface, and export the conical flat pattern as DXF.
Conical workspace
Use this tool to lay out a sticker or sleeve for a tapered cup, vessel, or frustum. The preview stays scaled to fit the workspace, and the developed flat pattern updates immediately as you adjust geometry.

How to make a tapered cup or vessel label template
- The shape is modeled as a frustum, so the tool can generate a sticker or sleeve template for a tapered cup, tapered vessel, or similar conical container.
- Any 2 of the 3 left-side height fields define the label band. The third field is solved automatically so the printable sticker or sleeve zone stays consistent.
- The flat pattern is the developed frustum band only, which gives you the conical label template geometry for die-line review and DXF export.
