Batch Process Open the Optimizer and set the options within to create a desired output. Once options are set click ‘Use as default’, and then click Cancel to close the dialog. Highlight all sheets within the Nest Explorer and click Process to start optimization and post processing of the sheets in the nest. Processing One by One Open the Optimizer and set the options within to create a desire output. Click OK when options are set. Open Post Processor dialog and set location and file name of the nest, click OK to process sheet. Select the next sheet and click Open (or double click on the selected sheet to open). Process in the same fashion as the first, continue for each sheet listed in the Nest Explorer. Step 9: Once sheets within the Nest Explorer display Postprocessed they are ready to be accepted. Accept will move all nested parts within the Active tab of the Orders database to the completed tab. If some parts or a portion of the parts ordered were not nested or processed they will remain in the Active tab. Highlight all sheets within the Nest Explorer and click Accept. Note- if an error message appears that the raw material is not available this means that the material sheet size that was nested was not input into the Plates Database. This error is okay and files are still created. Once the sheets are accepted the Nest Explorer will display Accepted. Step 10: Open Orders Database from Database menu. Once the sheets were accepted the parts that were nested are now moved from the Active tab to Completed tab. Click on ‘Completed’ to view the parts. Step 11: To create a report (text file) that will display parts that have or will been processed through NC Express click Export on Orders Database dialog. This will bring up the Windows Save As dialog. Find a directory to output the text file, type in the name of the file, and click Save. This file will store information for parts that are both Active and Completed. Part quantities as far as how many have been nested or ordered is stored within this file. This file can be used to track what has been processed for the day. 10-128
11 Appendix A- Modify tooling Tool ID- Tool name Tool type- type of tool (Rnd, Sqr, Rect, Obrd, Spec, Shr, and Path (laser)) NOTE- Spec tools can only be created through ‘Add special tool’. Characteristics: Length- length (x) of tool (Laser=Kerf, RND=diameter, SHR=thickness of the blade) Width- height (y) of tool Corner radius- corner radius of tool. (used only for Square and Rectangles) Tool size- sets size of collar size of physical tool. Defines station the tool can fit, but can fit in a larger station if necessary. Key/slots of die- Angle at which the tool can be placed within turret. Dies- Dies are added to allow tool to be used pertaining to different material thickness. Settings (Comments, Stripper height, RAM speed, Acceleration, <strong>Punch</strong> depth) can be changed per each die set, allowing for output in NC code to be utilized differently for specified thickness. Miscellaneous: Nibbling and punch priorities- designed to work in conjunction with Autotool. Value of 0-9 used to set priority. 0=not used, 1=lowest, and 9=highest. Higher priority tools will be used before lower priority tools in Autotool. Tools with the same priority will depend on waste and stroke. Typically zero (0) nibble priority will be used for smaller multitools to not allow Autotool to apply them automatically. 11-129
