Mirror pattern

 

Machining centre transfer parameter for Nesting

 

When transferring to a machining centre with type 8 - Homag Woodwop V4->V8 (MPR/X), 9  - 2D DXF nested layered, or  13 - Machining Program Interface (MPI), the output file can be mirrored in X, Y or both.

 

Set this parameter to control this. The options are:-

 

None

Mirror in X

Mirror in Y

Mirror in X and Y

 

If one of the mirror options is set the nested pattern DXF files generated are mirrored.

 

(Part drawings are not affected)

 

 

Notes

 

- For 2D DXF nested layered the CSV file has the extension:  .CSD.

 

This file is like the CSV file created for MPR(X) transfer except for fields 18,19 and 20 which have the following values:-

 

18. X Centroid point of the part based on the origin of bottom left

19. Y Centroid point of the part based on the origin of bottom left

20. Angle value - always set to 0

 

For rectangular parts the X,Y centroid values are the centre of the part, for shaped parts the centroid point is the centre of gravity for the part.
