Kabaido reads each cutting list line by line, nests on your sheets and remnants and posts the cut file.

The work it does
Fabrication enquiries arrive as the customer's cutting lists and DXF packs, rarely with part numbers, and want a quick price.
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 offcut goes back into stock
A nest marked as cut writes its own stock lines: the remnant used, the offcut banked.
See ArclineCutting the nest for CUT-2: the Nest and cut screen reports the remnant 1180 x 760 mm consumed with a new remnant 1051 x 156 mm banked. The Stock ledger's Mild steel 6mm remnants line records the consumption then the banked offcut, leaving 1 in stock.

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.
Questions
- Yes. Arcline nests true shape onto the real sheets and banked remnants you hold, and books the offcuts back into stock.More on Arcline plasma
- Yes. Arcline posts G-code and DXF for your controller and simulates the cut first.More on Arcline plasma
- Yes. Each line is read into section, grade and length, and a sentence that scopes the job qualifies the lines instead of becoming one.
- No. Setup adds the plasma table as a station with no bed geometry, rate or key; you enter what only the shop knows.
