Interactive Mode

In interactive mode the user initializes a nest job and fetches a nesting with a ready layout. The menu function Sequence nesting will then transfer the necessary data to the Plug-In, it will sequence and put the starts for the current nesting. After optimizing the starting sequence using its own algorithm, the Plug-In returns data for the nested plate to the Nesting System. The nested plate are presented on the screen with the starts placed and sequenced and the user can continue processing the nested plate. This processing can include modification of the starts or making the production data for the plate by verifying the tool path, creating the sketch and the generic output and if connected the NC-output. The standard nesting functions are available after running the sequence plugin, above a common working procedure are described.
