Sub-surface focus is used for thick stainless; surface focus for thin steel. 6. Troubleshooting Common Software Errors Error Code / Symptom Root Cause Corrective Action Geometry gap in the CAD file.
While this article provides an overview, effective use of BySoft 7 requires hands-on learning. Though the software is discontinued, official training and materials still provide valuable foundational knowledge.
If parts cut into each other during simulation, check your part clearance settings in ByNest. Ensure that the "Part-to-Part Distance" is at least equal to or greater than the laser beam width (kerf) plus the material thickness.
: Before generating a report, you must first calculate the estimated production time. Go to the Cutting Plan
Select standard sheet sizes from your inventory or create a custom sheet size. Automated vs. Manual Nesting
Users can drag and drop their actual DXF or DWG files directly into the simulator window. Unlike the main software, this mode highlights every element that requires user attention (e.g., open contours, inner contours, micro-joints) with pulsing visual cues, teaching the user exactly what the software "sees" in their geometry.
Setting the correct entry points for the laser to ensure edge quality.
When designing native parts, always define your and Material Thickness first. BySoft 7 uses these parameters to reference internal bend deduction tables. Use the Base Flange tool to draw your initial flat profile.
You can tailor the quick-access toolbar to include your most-used functions, such as "Import DXF" or "Check Geometry."
Efficient nesting directly impacts profitability. BySoft 7 offers several advanced nesting algorithms to maximize your sheet utilization. Sheet Management
