FuncÂtions include DXF import, TrueShape nesting, automatic path generation and NC-code generation. Loaded DXF files allow operators to automatically or manually nest parts. Operators can create new tasks using standard shapes available in the program’s library. They can also edit part parameters and generate a variety of custom reports, including cost, layout and summary reports.Â
