Cygnet's Solutions
The client collaborated with Cygnet InfoTech to deliver the solution that was structured in two parts (CAD, CAM):
The CAD part manages the functionalities related to shapes and allowed drawing many types of 2D shapes like: Line, Oval, Rectangle, Arc etc. The tools also allowed to export and Import Shapes and modify existing shapes.
CAM implemented the nesting algorithms (automatic and manual nesting) to define Jobs with the Machine, Stock and Shape Information. The system generated the GCode for CNC Machines and set the Cutting Sequence and Cutting Cycle and also kept a tab on average cutting time.
