Nesting parameter to allow margins to be ignored
Where board margins are set parts cannot usually be placed within the margins.
For large parts, that do not fit if the margins are taken into account, it can be useful to allow the margins to be ignored.
- Check this box to override margins
Override
margins for large parts
For example:-
Board: 2440 x 1220
Part: 2440 x 300
If margins are 10 then the part does NOT fit.
Override margins for large parts allows the part to fit
Notes
- Can also be set as a material parameter at both board and material level
- Margins are only overridden for individual parts fitted in either the length of width direction of the board. If two parts are placed side by side along the length or across the width of the board the specified margins must apply.
- Only applies where a large part exceeds the length or width of the board net of board margins. It does not apply when a combination of parts taken together would override the margin.
