Key Features

The material database is at the center of the realization of a production process automation.

The goal is the inventory of all materials, methods and machine and tool parameters. In the ideal case, the material database is used to gather the experience gained from the practice of all production processes of a company.

Note: An animation shows the effect of the material database.

The RIP reads material and method from the material database and stores this information in addition to the cutting contours in an OXF file - for further processing in OptiScout.

The material database ensures that all material-specific properties are provided. These properties have previously been stored in a material profile. This information is available at all levels of the industrial workflow - from the design phase, through process preparation to production itself.

In cut finishing different machines from different manufacturers are often used. OptiScout 8 can handle several machines parallel either single or combined. The individual technology data are read from the material database and used in production. This results in a very high degree of flexibility on the cut-device sector.

The central material database can supply several production machines via LAN. This provides device-specific data at the production site.
