PN4000 | Power-Nesting Update | Optimise NC programmes

News, 4. March 2025

WiCAM’s Power Nester has received many ‘quality of life’ improvements in its latest update, for a high level of efficiency when nesting.

With the help of new parameters, Power Nester can significantly reduce the number of sheets and NC programs. As fibre lasers are becoming faster and faster, the efficient removal of parts is becoming an increasingly relevant factor. Our new version has algorithms that reduce the various NC programs at the push of a button, while ensuring maximum material utilisation.

Our PN4000 programming system and power nesting routine work independently of the manufacturer. You can control your production manually or directly from your ERP system, and it does not matter whether you have a Trumpf TruLaser, Bystronic laser system, LVD laser system, Amada laser system or another CNC machine. With WiCAM, you can control all manufacturers.

„The power stacker starts the calculation. Before the update, in this case we had six panels with six different NC programs. Now the optimised version of the power stacker delivers five identical panels, which means one NC program and the whole thing calculated in 15 seconds.“

Mr. Christian Steigelmann, Head of Technical Support at WiCAM GmbH

 

You want to test the power nesting routine?

With our Power-Nesting routine, the return on investment (ROI) is usually less than 6 months, which is determined in advance by WiCAM in an online demo. You are welcome to arrange an online demo with us to get to know the Power-Nesting routine. Existing customers with the current version have the option to test the routine free of charge for 30 days in their own PN. Just send us a request.
