Smarter Programming, Better Part Flow, and Maximum Productivity - All in One Seamless System
Introduction:
Woodshops today face increasing complexity - multiple CNC machines from different manufacturers, a range of part sizes, and the constant demand for precision and efficiency. In this webinar, CIM-TECH's Kenny Belfatto and Jovani Ramos walk through best-in-class CNC programming practices, offering real-world solutions to common shop floor challenges. Learn how to unify machine programming, improve small part handling, streamline part flow, and boost yield with powerful tools inside Router-CIM.
Key Highlights:
- The Modern Woodshop Challenge:Shops today often run multiple CNC machines with different NC code needs and controllers making consistent programming and output difficult.
- Small Part Headaches:Handling small parts in nested-based machining can lead to errors, poor vacuum hold, or loss during unloading.
- Disorganized Part Flow:Without a clear system, managing parts between nesting and assembly can lead to downtime and confusion.
The Solution? A Smarter Approach with CIM-TECH.
Powerful Solutions for Modern CNC Shops:
Router-CIM’s intelligent add-ons deliver control, consistency, and efficiency from programming to part pick-up.
MultiPost™ - One Program, Every Machine
Shops using multiple CNC brands often need multiple software tools. Not anymore. With MultiPost, Router-CIM lets you generate a single NC program and post it to any supported machine.
Benefit: Standardize programming across machines with different controllers and NC code styles.
Small Parts Control - Keep Every Piece in Place
Router-CIM automatically identifies small or extra-small parts and applies the right strategies:
- Onion skinning
- Strategic tabbing
- Part spacing
- Zone-based nesting
Benefit: Fewer lost parts, better vacuum hold, and safer cutting.
Cart Control - Manage Part Flow Like a Pro
Cart Control allows you to group nested parts by job or assembly (e.g., kitchen, bath, office), so they unload together.
- Reduce sorting time
- Set yield thresholds
- Part spacing
- Customize how many carts or pallets can be active at once
Benefit: Simplifies assembly flow and reduces confusion on the shop floor.
Labeling Made Easy
Router-CIM includes robust labeling options - both automatic and manual - plus Touch-N-Print for quick on-demand labeling right at the machine.
Benefit: Standardize programming across machines with different controllers and NC code styles.
Designed for Results:
With these best practices, CIM-TECH customers benefit from:
- Standardized programming across machine types
- Cleaner nests and better material yield
- Fewer small-part issues or lost components
- Improved flow from nest to assembly
- Enhanced operator confidence and uptime
