Sorting the Cutting Data
When sorting cutting data, cutting is performed collectively so that the amount of movement in the media feed
direction and the tool replacement time are minimized, so cutting operation is improved efciently.
Sorting data simply sorts the area parameter data so that media movement can be minimized. It is much more
efcient than cutting at intervals with data that forces tools to jump from point to point.
Supplement
•
Sorting will start the process after all the data are stored in the buffer memory, so it takes time to start the cutting.
•
Sorting might not be effective for the data that is created efciently.
•
Process may be faster to turn off the sorting on the plotter, if the data is already sorted using the software on the PC.
