Hypertherm announces enhancements to TurboNest and NestMaster

Hypertherm has announced enhancements to its TurboNest 2012 and NestMaster 2012 nesting software for conventional plasma and oxyfuel machines. These include 2D CAD design capability that enables a detailed CAD drawing to be created or edited. Also the part list pane has been redesigned for greater flexibility and control over parts from the main software window and DXF output has become a standard feature.

Specific TurboNest improvements include: better material grade and gauge functionality to further differentiate beyond material type and thickness; customised material naming (other than the TurboNest default); major improvements to interior cut sequencing for fast processing and shorter transverse motions; and consolidation of rectangular and true shape nesting.
