Replace Geometries For Faster Cutting

Replace Geometries For Faster Cutting

1,148 Intersecting Line Segments Replaced With 178 Tangent Arcs

image3-1

The CAD file for the finished part in the picture below consisted of 1,148 consecutive short line segments. PEP Technology’s CAD Converter automatically replaced every line segment with a tangent arc segment and developed the finished cutter path in 2 minutes.

PEP Technology’s Automation dramatically:

  • Reduced the time it took to create the finished cutter path.
  • Reduced the machine code size per part to 1/15th it’s original size.
  • Reduced the machine code size to cut the entire nest to 1.
  • Reduced the cutting time by increase the speed of the cut.
  • Improved the cut quality of the parts

Highlights of the Cad Converter Replace Software

CAD file had thousands of short geometries.

Issues: Jagged part edges, huge code size, slow cutting as machine control slows down at each intersection.

PEP’s REPLACE SOFTWARE converted LINES to ARCS automatically!
