The wire EDM erosion chart as it ships, 3 rows of wire feed and start time per diamond layer, each marked modelled. On it: PCD profile cutter 125: PCD knife blanks, 49 min; PCD saw blade 350 x 72T: PCD tip blanks, 8 min.
One job model under every machine module. Four jobs on the demonstration floor, one per machine module: KAB-J26-00001, Punch die insert, 2 off, 2 h 50 min, £147.33 at standard; KAB-J26-00016, A nest of 12 parts, 4 min, £5.63 at standard; KAB-J26-00005, Pump housing face and bore, 4 off, 1 h 35 min, £102.92 at standard; KAB-J26-00018, Ø10 square end endmill, 5 off, 1 h 12 min, No rate. Each carries a trace code, standard minutes, the minutes each scan measures and a cost at the machine's rate, moving through queued, setting up, running and done.

Questions
- They are modelled from the module's erosion chart and marked as modelled.
- No. It plans, times and tracks the erode queue; programs stay on the machine's own controller.
