ProNest Productivity Modules
Productivity modules are designed to help users become more productive and reduce operating costs. The modular design of MTC Software gives users the flexibility to choose the Productivity module(s) that benefits them most in their specific process and application. Benefits of these modules include reduced cut cycle time, elimination of machine down-time from head crashes, reduced scrap from out-of-tolerance parts, improved nest utilization and reduced material handling. Productivity modules may be used individually to provide substantial savings or used together to give even greater return on investment.
Automatically or interactively arrange a pair, quad or an array of parts together so that they share a common edge cut. The result is a reduction in pierce cycles and cut time. Learn More >
Automatically or interactively common line cut an unlimited number of nested parts. Parts with one or more straight side can easily be snapped together and rearranged to produce any common line cut configuration. The result is a reduction in pierce cycles and cut time. Learn More >
Creates cut paths between parts’ lead-outs and lead-ins in order to connect them together. This allows the development of a single, continuous cutting path for multiple parts which reduces production time (elimination of pierce cycles) and consumable costs. Learn More >
Creates bridging cuts (2 parallel lines) between parts which connect and stabilize them during separation. This allows for the development of a single, continuous cutting path for multiple parts which reduces production time (elimination of pierce cycles) and consumable costs. Learn More >
Eliminates the chance of head collisions and can significantly reduce production time. This is accomplished through a combination of moving lead in/out positions, developing avoidance paths around possible tip-up situations, and by using partial or full head raises. Learn More >
Automatically adjusts both the number of cutting heads and the spacing used based on the size of the part being nested. Learn More >
Manually or automatically divide your plate scrap into sections (can be cut before or after the nest). Learn More >
A parametric library designed to automatically generate flat-plate developments for fabricated, welded, cylindrical pipe joints and transitions used in Blowpipe applications. Learn More >
