Accelerated nesting production process through stay-down, common line and onion skinning

Users of woodWOP 8 and intelliDivide Nesting now have access to a variety of functions to accelerate the nesting production process.

Für die Nutzung dieser neuen Funktion wird woodWOP 8 und das neue woodWOP Nesting-Plugin benötigt.

In the so-called stay-down process, the start-up movements are optimised,  with the tool approaching only one point and remaining in the nest at the specified milling depth for the entire machining time. This saves machining time, as each individual workpiece is no longer approached and stopped.

In addition, it can optionally be recognized that the part spacing corresponds exactly to the mold diameter. Then the tool passes between two workpieces only once and separates them from each other. This process is also referred to as the common line (= common tool path). By using this option, valuable processing time can be saved even further.

Another highlight is the option to set multiple milling infeeds. For example, you can specify that only the small parts are pre-milled in the first pass. In the second pass, milling is then carried out to the final depth.
