Numerical control means interfacing with debit machines, if these have the specific functionality. Interfacing means the application will bring the information so that the machine can debit the window segments correctly (i.e. Segment length, segment angles, the order in which it is debited, information for labeling, etc.).
Often enough the machines that use CNC (computer numerical control) give the user software applications that can import information in different formats. Once the data has been imported, the machines software application will command the machine to cut according to that information.
Important: CNC is available only in Ra Workshop Advanced Professional or Enterprise.
Important:in order to use the CNC you first need to do the cutting optimization.
CNC Menu
The dialog for CNC can be accessed through the Project » CNC
menu as seen in the picture below:
CNC Dialog
The CNC dialog allows the following operations:
- File Format. IThe export formats supported by Ra Workshop. For example the format InfoSys 2.0 is supported by the Kaban machines.
- Export File. Select the export location of the file.
- Report Grouping Selection. From the CNC file you can delete specific items or they can be arranged to our liking.
