Step 6: After parts have been entered into the Orders Database they are now ready to<br />
be nested. Sort parts by <strong>machine</strong> name by clicking Machine in Sort by. Select all<br />
parts to be nested (parts input from step above) by clicking on the <strong>machine</strong> name<br />
within the grid (white area). Once parts are selected click Nesting [x]…<br />
Step 7: Once the parts are nested from the Orders Database the system will start<br />
nesting from the run name that you entered within the Options menu. If the run<br />
number has already been used the system will ask if it is okay to overwrite the<br />
existing folder, click OK to overwrite or Cancel to continue to next number. Note-<br />
run folders created before NC Express was currently opened will be asked if it is okay<br />
to overwrite, and run folders created while NC Express is currently opened will<br />
automatically be skipped.<br />
Once the run folder(s) is created the nest dialog will appear. The dialog is set the<br />
same way as normal nesting.<br />
Set the settings to nest parts as normal. All parts will be scheduled. Modify the sheet<br />
size and click OK.<br />
Step 8: Once parts have been nested they will need to be optimized and post<br />
processed. The nested sheets can either be batch processed or optimized and post<br />
processed one by one.<br />
Before optimizing go to Process menu | Retool nest and select Automatic. Enable<br />
Double hit removal and <strong>Punch</strong> Common line to remove undesired extra hits within<br />
the nest.<br />
