I have a 48" x 48" plasma table and would like to know if it is possible to cut a rectangle 20" wide x 70" long from a 48" x 96" sheet?
I've done this in other software where the post processor creates two tiles/files (48"x48"). I'll run the "A" tile, move the material, the run the "B" tile and the cutting resumes for the finished piece.
Is something like this possible in SheetCam? (I'm building a 6 foot high storage cabinet for a customer and would like to use my plasma table to cut the sides, doors, back, Etc.)
Current software is SheetCam 4.0.10. Mach 3. My normal workflow is to draw the parts in Vectric Aspire, export to a .dxf. Open in SheetCam, assign the cutting operation and the post processor to create my .tap file. Then load on Mach 3 for cutting the parts.
Okay I figured this one out. Drew a temporary horizontal reference line to divide the drawing manually. Cut the vectors on the intersection then saved the A vectors and B vectors into separate files. Finished cutting three 48" x 96" sheets this morning, everything came out perfect.
