Sheet metal and fabrication
Kabaido reads cutting lists line by line, nests plasma parts on real sheets and remnants and posts the cut file.
The work it does
Fabrication enquiries arrive as cutting lists and DXF packs, typed the way the shop talks, rarely with part numbers.
A request read into a structured table: 2 lines, each with its quantity, and 14 attributes, each cited to the customer's own words.
A DXF pack, two processes
bracket, 3mm CR4, 120 off, laser cut; gusset, 6mm S275JR, 40 off, plasma cut; all to EN ISO 2768-m
Grade, thickness, process and tolerance per line; the plasma part nests in Arcline on real sheets.
A structural cutting list
6 off UB 203 x 133 x 25 at 6000 long; hot dip galvanised; EN 1090 EXC2
Section and length read as written; the galvanising and EXC2 carried onto each line.
A new part with no drawing
New one, no drawing yet: a simple tray, 3mm, around 40 off, folded on all four sides
'Around 40 off' is not a quantity, so it is asked, with the drawing and material.
The presets for this trade
The presets for Sheet metal and fabrication as Settings, Presets lists them, each counting what it brings: Plate profiling and cutting, Materials and stock. Each is opened in turn to name what it sets up and what it is not for, then the first is set up and marked On.

The products it uses most
Not for: The forming and welding after the cut: Arcline takes a job to the cut file and the offcut, not through the brake and the bay.
