AGFM NESTING SOFTWARE SOLUTION

  • Click here to see a quick nesting demo!

    • Multitasking (several programs and users simultaneously on one or more terminals)

    Network ability from PC to main frames (particularly suitable for communication with a GFM CNC6000)

    Fast and flexible nesting

    Full integration between CAD system and cutting/routing machines

    The system processes DXF and IGES drawing files, which are available with from most CAD systems

    Nesting of the true geometry  (not an  approximation)

    Nesting of parts with zero separation, even parts with complex curves and splines

    Possibility to process complex geometric elements such as splines, continuously through the entire system including cutting on a machine equipped with a CNC6000

    Automatic recognition of inner and outer contours

    Parts can be placed in wholes of other parts.  Parts can be placed in wholes of other parts which are in wholes of other parts. Etc..

    Nesting of predefined groups.  Parts can be nested so that they are close to each other in the final part programs.

    Parts can be placed at any requested angles from 0 to 360 degrees

    Enables full use of the GFM CNC6000 (e.g. corner smoothing, splines, overcutting, etc.)

    Full support of all machine functions (vacuum on/off, load material, etc.)

    True tool path optimization for optimal cutting times.

    Available automatic Text/Label positioning in the part programs.

    On-line help

    Comprehensive error messages and assistance in trouble shooting (i.e. new nesting required, re-cutting, etc.)

    Advanced Parameter management for truly flexible nesting and post processing.

    The NS2 Nesting system supports several machines and/or materials and may be used simultaneously by several users. (Complete nesting orders are automatically separated according to different materials, to be processed by different machines).

    Post processors work for all like machine types.  Any combination from a CM-10 through a US-20 to a US-120 machine all have only 1 post processor.  This post works for any and all of these machines in any configuration.

    The NS2 nesting system is a modular system, in which all modules may be used independently (e.g.: manually generated part programs may be converted into CAD data and then be used for nesting,..).

    Simple interface to a production planning system (PPS)

    The NS2 Nesting system can easily be adapted to the specific production organization by the customer.
