Cutting Plan Configuration

  • Cutting Thickness  (mm): defines the thickness of the cut, in millimeters, that performs the cut. 

  • Maximum cut length: defines the maximum possible cutting size for the machine.

Label

  • Print part labels:  when this option is selected, information related to part labels is sent in the .ptx file.

  • Print remnant labels:  when this option is selected, information related to remnant labels is sent in the .ptx file.

 

5. On the Labels tab, under the Configuration guide, adjust the rotation, width, and height of the label image.

IMPORTANT: these measurements are defined in the KDT PreSize settings because KDT PreSize does not send the label template, only the content of each field.
