optimize cutting patterns for materials such as sheet metal, wood, and plastic
A new search function in the materials table speeds up the application of specific materials to nesting jobs [3].
Material costs are the single largest expense in sheet metal fabrication. One of the most effective ways to reduce material usage is common-line cutting, where two parts share a single cutting path.
Just share the article, and let me know what aspect you’d like to focus on.
We ran a controlled test using a legacy part library (250 brackets, 50 gussets, 20 circular flanges).
