Jetcam launches free nesting software
savings calculator
Jetcam has made available a free online
tool (above) to estimate possible savings
through investment in its nesting
software. The gures provided by the
Jetcam nesting benchmark comparison
allow companies to estimate potential
savings in three key areas.
Prospective companies interested to
improve ef ciency in the CADCAM/
nesting process can request a free
nesting benchmark comparison.
By providing DXFs of parts, alongside a
nest of the same parts, customers can
see what percentage Jetcam’s high
performance nesting could save on
material over their existing software.
Programming time can be drastically
reduced by automating processes such
as CAD import, tooling and automatic
nesting, while machine runtime can also
often be improved, with parts being
common cut or (for lasers) JET-Cut fully
automatic y cutting. www.is.gd/edukaz
