How Material.csv and Sheet.csv are derived in Biesse nesting machine files

Learn what the Material.csv and Sheet.csv master files in a Biesse (CIX) nesting machine zip contain and how their rows and sheet sizes are derived.

1. When a client downloads Machine Files for a Biesse (CIX) nesting machine, the zip includes Material.csv and Sheet.csv master files alongside the panel cutlist CSV and the CNC programs.

2. Material.csv has one row per unique material code in the design.

3. Sheet.csv carries no stock quantity column (its columns are code; length; width; thickness; material; grainDirection; trimming; description, semicolon-separated; Material.csv has material; grain; image; description), and edge trimming is exported as 10 mm.

4. In a Biesse nesting machine's Machine Files, Sheet.csv's sheet length and width did not follow the board size set in Board Layout Settings: a work order whose board types are all set to 2480 x 1240 (its board layout cut on 2480 x 1240) exported 2440 x 1220 (standard 8x4) on every Sheet.csv row, and still did after one board type's size was changed to 2400 x 1200 and the board layout recut on it.

5. Sheet.csv's trimming column read 10 (mm) on every row and did not follow the board type's margins in Board Layout Settings: at Margin L / Margin W 10 it read 10, and after one board type's margins were changed to 5 (its board layout recut) it still read 10.

6. Each factory's own standard (for example 5 mm, 7 mm, 0 or 10 mm) should be verified and entered in the board size settings.

7. The board layout groups panels under each board type and reports, per board type, its core and external / internal finish, how many panels are cut, how many boards are used (as '<length> x <width>: <n> sheets') and the yield percentage, so a designer can check whether material is being wasted. Laminate sheets are not counted separately: the Pasting Reports download lists, per board type, the full-size boards to be pasted with their external and internal finish and their quantity.

8. The board layout summary reports sheet quantities per material, with a separate sheet row for each thickness of the same core material.
