Off-line CAD programming directs CNC profilers

Off-line CAD programming system for CNC profiling machines has software that can turn Windows text into CNC code so that if it can be typed, it can now be cut.

The ESAB off-line CAD programming system for CNC profiling machines is a powerful full CAD drawing and editing system.

It enables the creation of parts and output to ESAB Automation's full range of CNC profiling machines.

It is available with a range of additional productivity tools, the latest of which is FontGen.

This novel software package can turn Windows text into CNC code so that if it can be typed, it can now be cut.

FontGen is an ideal tool for all companies needed to create cut parts of company and product brands/logos or other text for identification purposes.

It simply converts Windows based text into a defined cutting programme off-line.

This information can then be downloaded to the ESAB profiling machine - oxy-fuel gas, plasma-arc, laser, water - and the part cut to size.

FontGen creates the optimum cutter path and its automatic nesting capabilities ensure maximum plate usage.

ESAB Automation markets FontGen in the UK as part of a complete range of ESAB's cutting software for its established profiled of profiling machines.

Ideal for small to medium workshops.

It has a number of features, all designed to promote workshop productivity and quality of finished cut part.

These include DXF inputs, CAD clean functions, graphic verification, editing of CNC code, and automatic interactive nesting.
