Cutting process settings

Cutting order

1

Optimized by software

The software prioritizes small parts first, then cuts from outside to inside to prevent panel shifting.

2

From right to left, from top to bottom

This algorithm is for CNC Machines without vacuum Hold-down

3

From right to left, from bottom to top

This algorithm is for CNC Machines without vacuum Hold-down

4

Combine cutting lines

This feature merges cutting paths for adjacent parts that are spaced exactly by the tool diameter.

• The algorithm cuts the outer edges of larger parts counterclockwise first, then slices the shared lines in between to minimize tool movement and maximize efficiency.

Minimum size for combining (mm): Defines the eligibility for cut merging. Example: If set to 300mm, only parts with two edges ≥ 300mm are eligible for merging.

Drilling Order

1

Minimize Tool Changes (Machines without drill bank)

The machine completes all holes with one drill diameter before switching to another — reducing tool change frequency.

2

Minimize Movement (Machines with drill bank)

The algorithm prioritizes drilling nearby holes first to minimize toolhead travel.
