MTC Software offers two world-class products for oxyfuel cutting applications, TurboNest® and ProNest®. There are many factors which determine which product is right for your specific application, so we recommend you contact us to discuss the best solution.
MTC Software offers many features that apply to the oxyfuel cutting process; some of these important features address the following areas of your cutting operation:
Enhanced Part Quality
- Lead in/out style control based on profile size for optimum profile quality
- Lock Leads to reduce the effects of thermal movement
- Optimized lead placement while nesting and auto-tabbing to minimize the effects of thermal movement
- Automatic recognition of grain restraint to avoid forming fractures
- Bridge cutting to reduce thermal movement
- Heat dissipation cut sequencing to reduce/eliminate thermal warping
Improved Material Utilization
- Pair common-line cutting
- Automatic nesting on remnant and skeleton plates
- Plate and nesting strategy selection optimization
Increased Productivity
- Bridge, chain and common-line cutting to reduce cycle time
- Rotary head bevel support to reduce secondary processing
- Optimized cut sequencing to reduce traverse times
- Multi-head cutting support with auto-spacing to achieve maximum part volume
- Support for cutting, marking and point processes such as drilling to reduce material handling by allowing more work to be performed on a single machine
- Pre-piercing with different processes to reduce cycle time
- Plate size verification and torch home control to help ensure the correct material is loaded on the machine before cutting and the torch is moved to the desired location to allow easy unloading after cutting
- Edge piercing to reduce part cycle-time
