Sheet handling

Sheet handling

Based on the user preference, the parameters to handle a sheet can be modified in Sheet handling.

Sheet handling settings are available in Layout Settings once nesting of a part is done.

Sheet handling

Also, this setting is available in Machine Defaults.

Loading

Loading

Sheet loading method - Depending on the machine and extras, this option is to set up how a sheet will be loaded onto the machine. The options include:

  • manual

  • pallet changer

  • various options for LiftMaster

Loading corner - This option is used to set up which corner of the sheet will be loaded into the machine first when using a LiftMaster. The options include:

  • Bottom left

  • Bottom right

  • Top right

  • Top left

Measurement

Measurement

Measure sheet position - This option is used to set up whether the sheet is to be measured. The options are either:

  • don’t measure

  • with height regulation

Measuring corner - When the measure sheet position is set to 'With height regulation', this setting is used to set up where the sheet will be measured from. The options include:
- Bottom left - Bottom right - Top right - Top left

Sheet loading position

Sheet loading position

X & Y -These settings are used to set up the sheet loading position in the X and Y axis of the machine. This can be between 0 > 10000 millimeters.

Sheet loading tolerance

Sheet loading tolerance

Max. sheet loading error in X - Maximum error in loading the sheet on the table along the X direction.

Max. sheet loading error in Y - Maximum error in loading the sheet on the table along the Y direction.

Max. sheet loading angle error - Maximum angle error in loading sheet on the table.
