JETCAM Expert V16 for CNC Punching and Profiling Machines

By DE Editors

JETCAM International s.a.r.l. ( Monaco)  announced the latest version V16 of its Expert CADCAM and nesting software for all CNC punching and profiling machines.

JETCAM Expert V16’s sequencing routines have been optimized to improve the cutting path, which can reduce the overall cutting time of complex nests. A new reporting engine provides comprehensive and customizable reports. In the report designer, users can drag and drop the required fields or tables of information onto the page. Single component or complete nest images can also be added. Reports of any size or format can be generated, including labels for single label printers.

Further development specific to punching machines has also been announced. Automatic tooling placement logic has been optimized, providing users of punching machines with the same level of automation as profiling machines.

Tools are automatically placed on the component based on highly configurable parameters. This information is then carried through to all related nests — if the component is updated then this is automatically reflected on the nest. A Tool teach mode enhances the automatic tooling facilities by allowing JETCAM to learn a user’s preferred method of tooling a particular contour.

V16 is available for download from JETCAM.
