Nesting parameter to set how offcuts are positioned
Patterns are sorted by material so any patterns for offcuts are either first for each material, last for each material, or remain in board order. Use this parameter to choose the position of patterns for offcuts. The options are:-
Board list sequence
First per material
Last per material
First in run
Last in run
Use this parameter to choose the order.
Select the offcut sequence from
the list
Notes
- Affects the order of patterns produced by the optimiser. If the patterns are changed or re-sequenced later this parameter is not followed.
- Shaped Nesting II and Rectangular Nesting only
- ‘First’ and ‘Last’ options do not apply when open parts are restricted and the board loading sequence is overridden.
- First / Last in run sorts all offcuts (for all materials) to the start or end of a run. The sequence of offcut patterns is by material and in the same order as the non-offcut patterns.
