New RADAN provides ultimate nesting for punching machines
Summary
CAD/CAM, tubes, bending, quoting and the specialist CAD for CAM modelling tool all benefit from a number of enhancements in the latest sheet metal software from Hexagon – RADAN. Product Manager Olaf Körner says optimising nests with the module can reduce the number of raw material sheets by eight per cent in a year. “Manufacturers spending hundreds of thousands of pounds a year will find that gives them massive savings.” He says many manufacturers would notice the material saving, but also, having more parts on a sheet takes less time to produce the batch. This new piece of functionality calculates a better sequence meaning it can be fed into the machine in little steps, improving the handling.” And the tool editor now shows important additional information by default, making it more user-friendly. It represents another state-of-the-art version of the software for sheet metal companies working on models they have designed themselves, or imported as CAD files from other systems.”
