In addition to RCP, the software includes benefits for punching users. Sequencing has been further optimized to deliver faster punching times. According to the company, common-line punching can be intelligently and automatically applied to parts to save material and further reduce punching times. Remnant nesting allows the user to build a database of partly used sheets, which are then automatically selected when a suitable nest is available. Automatic tooling also includes a teach mode, with which the software learns user preferences and selects future tooling based on previous experience.
