saw_param_tension_centre.png

Use this parameter to set how the area of the board for taking tension trims is defined.

 

 Use the radio buttons to choose an option

 

Edge (area is defined from the edges of the board)

Centre (area is defined from the centre of the board)

 

Some users prefer tension trims towards the middle of the board (select 'centre) and others prefer tension trims towards the edges of the board (select 'edge').

 

Where the saw parameter: 'Reserve material for tensions trims during optimisation is NOT set and there is not enough waste to satisfy all the requested tension trims the program favours the trims towards the centre or towards the edge of the board depending on the above settings

 

The maximum distance of the trim from the edge or centre must also be set.

 

 

Notes

 

- Can also be set as a material parameter at both board and material level

 

- The default setting is 'Edge'
