Cut Pro - Interpret vein direction – Promob Support

Available in products

Cut Pro

In the Entries menu, in the Panels option, the direction of the plate vein varies according to the dimensions that are inserted.

In the example below, as the width is set to 2750 (the long side of the plate) the direction of the shaft is horizontal.

That is, as shown below:

If the largest side of the plate was in height, the plate would behave as follows:

This information is important for us to understand how the parts are positioned on the cut plane.

We can configure the direction of the parts in two ways, according to each configuration mode used, Complete or Simplified mode of Cut Pro.

Review Cut Pro's Complete configuration and Simplified configuration here.

Part dimensions

This type of shaft direction configuration is available for both Cut Pro configuration modes, both in Complete mode and in Simplified mode, being the only vein configuration for Simplified mode.

Notice how this registration can be done in Complete mode.

Note that item I1 has width = 700mm and depth = 400mm

Note that item 1 has width = 400mm and depth = 700mm.

Note that both have a horizontal vein direction:

Now notice how the parts behave in the cut plane:

TIP: for this control to work, it is necessary that the direction of the parts vein is the same as the direction of the plate vein.

Notice how this registration can be done in Simplified mode.

Note that item I1 has width = 700mm and depth = 400mm.

Note that item I2 has width = 400mm and depth = 700mm.

Now notice how the parts behave in the cutting plane:

Vein Direction

This type of configuration is only available in Complete Cut Pro mode, due to the need for the Vein column to control the direction of the vein, that is, the dimensions will not be changed in this configuration, as shown in the example below:

This is the cut plan generated:

Note that in both types of configurations, as well as in the configuration in which we change the dimensions of the part, such as changing the direction of the vein through the Vein column, the cut plane was generated in the same way, respecting the direction of the vein and the dimensions of the pieces.

TIP: In Complete mode, by clicking on the icons in the Edge column, the Edge Band Editor is enabled. Through it, it is possible to verify the drawing of the part, with its dimensions and direction of the vein, in this way it is easy to understand the positioning of the part in the cut plane:
