Nester
Nester is a proprietary part nesting program which allows the operator to manually group or
nest selected parts together as one part program to conserve raw materials and maximize
machine utilization.
An optional Automatic Nesting feature is available as an add-on item to Nester. This true
shape, single station, automatic nesting package allows quick and simple nesting of profiles on
to selected material sizes. This feature is offered as a limited use trial version. Please contact
your control vendor for information on adding this feature.
HyperCAD
The optional HyperCAD ® feature is an easy to use 2D drawing application specifically
designed for shape cutting. The software’s powerful CAD utilities let users import DXF and
CNC files or draw from scratch. Files can be converted to graphical parts for editing and
saving or go directly to cutting.
