Nesting - Lincoln Electric Torchmate 4400 User Manual

VMDNesting is an irregular parts nesting program. This allows the operator to import DXF or DWG files
without the need for an offline CAM software to generate the proper G-Code. The NESTING will apply the
kerf correction along with the appropriate lead-ins to all features. Also, it will generate the tightest nest
available for the size of material you enter in.
