ORLANDO — Kenny Belfatto, CIM-TECH’s National Sales manager, will discuss how to save time, boost productivity, and reduce costs with the company’s Advanced Nesting Module in a webinar slated for June 21 at 2 p.m. Eastern. Offering several features that increase efficiency and

reduce time-intensive “hands-on” tasks, the module delivers speed, accuracy, and cutting flexibility while decreasing waste and scrap breakdown.  

Key features to be discussed include:

• Stay Down Nesting, which has overlap and tangent lead-in and lead-out, enabling the machine to move from part to part fluidly without abrupt direction changes. 
• Common Line Nesting, which allows the tool to cut two parts at once. "Common line nesting reduces the machining time up to 40% compared to cutting around each shape," said Belfatto.
• Automated Two-Sided Nesting that lets you cut two sides of parts while in a nested sheet. This is much more productive compared to flipping single parts. "You can even cut halfway through one side and halfway through the other," said Belfatto. "This allows a round over or chamfer on each side without elevating the parts off the table and reduces spoil board resurfacing."
• Multiple Stock Size Nesting that can nest by yield, price, or priority.
• Cart Control Nesting, which allows you to balance material yield and workflow to match your production requirements. Prioritize parts to control the order of parts placement within the nested sheets. "Cart control simplifies the unloading of nested parts by grouping parts to nest. You can get the maximum yield by mixing multiple jobs but still be able to unload them onto carts or pallets effectively," he said.
• Skeleton Scrap Cutting uses the router to cut waste into manageable sizes instead of spending time breaking them up manually.

The 45-minute webinar will include time for questions and answers.
