Manual 0-5399 NESTING 5-37
Nest area width:
Nest area is the area (per torch)which is left when the plate collar, the torch distance tolerance and the nesting clearance has been
taken out of it. The nest area should be wide enough for the parts to be nested. Minimum width for the nest area is the part’s width
plus two times the kerf width.
Finally:
When you have selected the type of the operation and set all the necessary options, choose Apply and then Ok.
Important:
Nesting options Clearance and Collar are used during the torch distance calculations. Thus you should set them before you set any
of the multitorch settings.
