Six processes. Your entire production.
Every process is built into the core. Per process, machines, tools, hourly rates, changeover time and DFM rules are configured to your values.
Fast, clean, free form
Laser cutting
Optimal for thin to medium-thick sheet with complex contours and dense hole patterns.
- Geometry read
- Contours, holes, piercings, thickness, flat pattern
- Auto-calculated
- Contour length (outer and inner), Number of piercings per hole type
- Machine parameters
- Speed per material/thickness, Gas (O₂, N₂, compressed air)
High productivity in thick sheet
Plasma cutting
Optimal for medium to thick steel sheet where laser cutting gets too slow or hits its thickness limit.
- Geometry read
- Contours, piercings, holes, thickness, edge distance
- Auto-calculated
- Contour length (outer and inner), Number of piercings per hole
- Machine parameters
- Machine profile (amperage, HD/conventional), Gas (O₂, N₂, H35, air)
Thick carbon steel, no other method reaches as far
Oxy-fuel cutting
Unmatched for thick carbon steel sheet (>20 mm) where plasma falls short.
- Geometry read
- Contours, piercings, thickness, number of torches, bevel angle
- Auto-calculated
- Cut length per contour, Piercings per hole and start point
- Machine parameters
- Fuel gas type (acetylene, propane, MAPP, natural gas), Oxygen flow per torch
Heat-free precision in any material
Waterjet cutting
For thick materials, heat-sensitive alloys, composites and sandwich constructions where laser or plasma won't work.
- Geometry read
- Contours, holes, piercings, thickness, start points
- Auto-calculated
- Contour length (outer and inner), Number of piercings per hole type
- Machine parameters
- Material-specific cutting speed, Abrasive type and consumption per metre
High volumes, combination tooling
CNC punching
Standardised holes, punch-outs and cut-outs in series production, often with integrated bending in the same setup.
- Geometry read
- Standard holes, special holes, cut-outs, nibbling, batch size, clamp zone
- Auto-calculated
- Number of hits per tool station, Holes per type and diameter
- Machine parameters
- Tool library (turret positions), Cost per hit per tool
Forming, deep drawing, bending dies
Press manufacturing
For parts that need press tooling, deep drawing, forming, fixture bending, and large-scale series production.
- Geometry read
- Size, holes, bends, form features, draw depth, batch size
- Auto-calculated
- Part dimensions (bounding box, volume), Number of bends and their angles
- Machine parameters
- Press force (tonnage) per operation, Tool type (existing / new / modification)
