Improvements include:
- Manual nesting enhancements, such as drag array and anchor part to cursor, along with automatic bumping functionality, for greater control and faster nesting;
- Colour by part property that fills components with different colours, based on a designated attribute;
- Redesigned drill machine interface for plasma or oxy-fuel machines that incorporates drilling, tapping and other spindle operations to tackle jobs directly in ProNest;
- Native 64-bit support, allowing ProNest to take advantage of the extra accessible memory available on a 64-bit CPU/operating system.
Other changes to Hypertherm’s nesting software family are also taking place as part of this major version release. For instance, Hypertherm nesting software for production environments, formerly named TurboNest, is now called ProNest LT. Also, Hypertherm nesting software for job shop environments, formerly NestMaster, is now ProNest LTS.
