1D: Convergence judgment

The longer the search time and the more solutions are searched for, the more likely it is that a better solution will be found. This setting will terminate the search if a better solution than the current one is not updated in the specified number of seconds.
Therefore, the same problem may produce different results depending on the performance of your PC. The slower the CPU, the longer the setting should be. Also, the same problem, even on the same PC, may produce different results depending on the timing because of the multi-core processor support. Also, problems with fewer possible combinations may finish earlier than this time. " 0" will give the fastest results.

 

2D: Speed and Yield

Sets the balance between time and optimization efficiency.
Leftmost of the bar is set as 1

 

1 - Memory saving and speed first. Used for large problems or when memory is insufficient.
2- Multi-core processor support is available after this.
3- Default value.
4 - May take several times longer than 3, but the result is often not much different from 3.

 

2D: Minimum search time

This is a setting to increase the number of searches for problems that end instantaneously. 2-3 seconds is standard. On the other hand, it is possible to make the search take a long time, but the results will be the same or much the same after a long calculation time.

Length Format and Precision

• Decimal
  e.g. 123.4 mm; 12.3"
  Please assume the unit of numerical value freely, such as millimeter or inch.
  
  
• Feet and decimal inches
  例:10' 3.5"
  
  
• Fractional inches
  e.g. 12-31/32"
  
  
• Feet and fractional inches
  e.g. 12' 3-63/64"

The denominator of fraction inch corresponds to 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,128within the setting accuracy.
Unit symbols in feet · inch correspond to the following. Unit sign infeet[ft], ['], ['] Inch unit symbol [in], ["], ["]
In case of inch input, the symbol on the right end can be omitted.

 

Precision

Sets the minimum unit. For decimal points, set the number of digits forthedecimal portion. The range of valid values (see below) will change."Lengthsettings such as "Saw kerf size" and "Cut table length" also followthissetting. For parts and stock panel data input, if the data is outside thevalidvalues, the text color of the data turns red and the data is ignored intheplacement calculations. It is automatically reset to a sufficient accuracy required at the time of calculation.

 

Small stocks usage rate

The number is from 0 to 100. The larger the number, the more priority isgivento the stocks panel with the smaller area. The smaller size is assumedforreasons such as lower unit cost and easier handling. The setting can bechangedwhile checking the actual placement calculation results.

 

Cut table length

Specify the maximum size the cutting machine can cut.
For example, if the board is 4200*600 but the panel saw can only cut upto1850. If nothing is entered, there is no limit (see Valid Value Ranges,OtherMaximum Lengths below). Horizontally long materials will be dividedanddisplayed based on this value.

 

Enter a value in the format based on the "Length Format" and"Precision"settings.

 

Saw kerf size

This setting item has been moved to "Sheet Properties".

 

Integrare Parts of the same size

If checked, parts panels of the same size are merged together in theplacementcalculation.

 

Changesheetproperties

Sets whether parts panels can be rotated or not, etc. See the link.

 

1D: The effective range of the value

Double the range of the table below

 

Decimal Precision 1　130000
Decimal Precision 0.1　13000
Decimal Precision 0.01　1300

 

2D: The effective range of the value

Maximum number of types of Parts and Stocks is about 65,000.
The total number of Parts and Stocks is about 4.2 billion.
The scale that you can calculate really depends on the memory capacity.(32bitWindows = less then 2GB, 64bit = less then 4GB)
Even can support enough large-scale problem in practical use.
Can treat the long materials such as coil materials.
