LASER USER INTERFACE TOOL


LASER  MACHINE SOFTWARE USER INTERFACE

 SELECT TOOL

The select tool is used to select graphics in the workspace. The select tool provides different ways of selecting graphics.
In the select tool, you select all, deselect.
Select a similar curve. (Mostly used)
Select outer mould.
Select inner mould.
Select the layer.

SELECTION OF GRAPHICS BY MOUSE
If you left-click of mouse and drag left to right the graphics come under this is selected.


If you left-click of mouse and drag right to the left small entity is needed to select the whole entity.

 TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
The technical tool is used in cutting to get a good finish and accurate size.


 LEAD POSITION 
It is used to position the lead according to you.



COMPENSATE 
It used to get an accurate size by compensating the entities.


OUTER AND INNER 
It is used to position lead inner and outer.


MICROJOINT
It is used to create micro joint so that cut pieces do not collapse with the head of Laser.


FILLET
It is used to remover sharp edges by providing them radius.



RELEASE
It is provided at the corner by providing a radius outside.

COOLING POINT
It is the technical parameter to get a smooth edge while cutting. It for stops head sometimes at the cooling point and then start cutting.




 TOOLS




ARRAY
The array is used for copying the objects in RECTANGULAR & CIRCULAR PATTERN.

RECTANGULAR ARRAY is used copying objects is a rectangular pattern. In this, we need to specify rows and columns. Distance is also needed to specify.
Step 1. Select the graphics.
Step 2. Click on the array and select a rectangular array.
Step 3. Give the number of rows and columns and distance
Step 4. click ok.




RECTANGULAR ARRAY



CIRCULAR ARRAY  is used for copying objects in a circular pattern.


Step 1. select the objects.
Step 2. Go to the array and select circular array.
Step 3. Specify the number of objects and angle and centre.
Step 4.  select ok.

BRIDGE
As the name specifies it is used to make a bridge between graphics.



Select the entities that you want to make a bridge. Go to the bridge and specify the length and gap.



 NESTING
Nesting is the tool used in manufacturing. it is the process of laying out cutting patterns to minimize
the wastage. It can be done manually or automatically. Mostly it is done manually. For a single type product, automatic nesting can be done.
 

Advantages 
  • Minimize wastage.
  • Estimation of raw material.
  •  Minimize machine running time.

Process for nesting



STEP 1.  Select the part
STEP 2. Give the number of quantity.
STEP 3. Select auto nest.
