Burn

Purpose:

To add burning starts to a nested plate.

Prerequisites:

A nest must be open. One or more parts must be nested on the plate.

Instruction:

Choose the method of adding starts. Three methods are available. Choose [1] to add individual starts, [2] to add starts in all holes on the nest, or [3]to cut free geometry.

For [1], Indicate the location of the start on a part. Note that the default hook type or the hook type chosen should be suitable for the location on the part, as dictated by specific customer requirements.

For [2], the starts are located automatically. Note that the location of the starts chosen by the system may not be suitable for specific customer requirements.

For [3], Indicate the free geometry to be cut.

Options:

Options are only available when adding single burn starts, by selecting Reject. The options available allow selection of alternative hook types and location method for starts.

Note: that when an alternative hook type or location method is chosen, it is active for the addition of one start only.

Result:

A burn start will be added to the nested part as specified. Note that, typically, the customer will require marking starts to be added prior to adding burning starts.
