ProMotion Nest Software
ProMotion Nest Software is available for use with iCNC
Shape Cutting Controls, plasma cutting controls and in the office
with PCs operating on a
Windows-based platform.
Standard advanced features to maximize productivity
include a Macro Shape Library for easy shape creation.
ProMotion Nest reads both DXF drawings and ESSI/EIA
coded programs, eliminating the need for operators to
redraw shapes created by CAD. The point-and-click software also
simplifies other operator capabilities, including the pierce point
setting,
cutting directions, cutting order, chain cutting, copying, mirroring,
moving and much more.
You can also order ProMotion Nest Software with your choice of
various
Productivity Tools to maximize shape-cutting productivity even
more.
That includes a cost-saving Cost Calculator, an Interlocking Shapes
and
Parts Bridging capability, and an Expanded Lead-In/Lead-Out capability.
• Cost Calculator provides better steel plate utilization
with better
quoting and job estimation, more effective material management
and procurement.
• An Interlocking Shapes and Parts Bridging module reduces
consumable costs by enabling operators to cut multiple parts in
a nested plate with a single pierce.
• Other advanced options include a remnant plate stock management
database, automatic torch spacing, multi-torch nesting, and microCAD
and federate.See how you can customize your own installation.
