Nesting Add-Ons

Interactive Postprocessor
The optional
Interactive Postprocessor module
enables the definition of process-specific details to describe how
cutting or routing should be carried out. The definition of an
element specific cutting sequence, cutting direction, etc. is
possible for individual parts or entire nests. The tool path may be
totally controlled. In addition, for routing machines, this software
enables tool selection, height control, spindle management,
placement of tags and contour approach. Thus a specific part can
be cut a certain specified way any time it is used in a nest at
whatever angle it is placed.
3D Nesting
The optional
3D Nesting modules enable nesting
of three-dimensional parts for the cutting process on a 5 or 6-axis
machine. Existing 5 or 6-axes part programs may be nested with the
standard nesting modules, after the 3D Preprocessor module has
analyzed these programs.
3D
Postprocessor
The
3D Postprocessor module generates a
combined part program for the entire nest.
Vision
System Module
The optional Vision module should be used when
irregular materials (such as leather hides or remnants) have to be
processed. This software takes a picture of the material, deducts
the outer and inner contours and enables the definition of quality
zones and stretch directions for nesting on leather hides. This
material data is then used by standard nesting modules.
Upon request other modules are available (or may be
made available), especially enabling the usage of digital geometry
data in other formats.
