Auto Mark Recognition
Instantly reads and aligns to registration marks (even faded or skewed ones) using enhanced image processing. Supports manual override for custom mark placement. cutting master 5
Dynamic Nesting
Rearranges cut objects on the fly to maximize material usage, reducing waste by up to 20%. Can prioritize speed or economy (user selectable).
Layered Contour Generation
