| Item | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
 |
ID | The unique identifier for this part. This typically corresponds to your ERP part number. This is the identifier that will be used to order that part. |
 |
Description | An optional description to describe the part. |
 |
Material | The material and thickness from which this part is made off. |
 |
Constraints | The constraints restricting this part potential nesting positions. |
 |
Length | The length of the rectangular part. |
 |
Width | The width of the rectangular part. |
 |
Initial Rotation | The initial rotation mode can be either None or Manual. In manual mode the part can be rotated by a specified Initial Angle. None has the part oriented at 0 deg parallel to the X-axis. |
 |
Initial Angle | Enabled when the Initial Rotation is set to Manual mode. Enter an angular value to rotate the part. This new position will become the reference position considered by the constraints. |
 |
Overall Length | The overall length of the part. The maximum X value minus the minimum X value. |
 |
Overall Width | The overall width of the part. The maximum Y value minus the minimum Y value. |
 |
Weight | The weight of the part calculated using the material density, thickness and the part dimensions. Pertinent when working with heavy materials for safety concerns. |
 |
Area | The area of the part. |
 |
Perimeter | The perimeter of part. Useful to calculate the cutting time. |
 |
CAD | Preview of the part's automatically generated CAD file. |
