New Tool Path for an Old Problem

New Tool Path for an Old Problem

You are given a simple 2D part to program. 

\

Most machinists can use any old CAM system to knock out a quick program, but if you multiply the problem by nesting 136 parts with 4 variations suddenly the job gets tougher, now it might take you a day to program these parts.  You must be concerned about gouging the neighboring part, since the nest is not a perfect pattern you have to program nearly every part.

\

If you have to knife and fork you way through these challenges you are not gaining a competitive edge.

The way we think must evolve.
