The module plans, monitors, and controls all manufacturing processes, providing a single-pane-of-glass view of your entire production line, from laser cutting to bending.

Click the "Nest" button. BySoft will automatically rearrange parts to minimize scrap.

Select the appropriate file format for your Bystronic machine.

Use the integrated CAD module to flatten 3D sheet metal parts into accurate 2D profiles using proper K-factors.

Start by opening BySoft CAM and importing the 2D or 3D CAD file (DXF, DWG, etc.) for your part.

For complex geometries, manually adjust parameters by selecting the contour. Lead-In and Lead-Out Configurations

Use the drag-and-drop grid tools to manually reposition priority parts or fill empty sheet spaces with stock items. 5. Sequence Optimization and NC Code Generation

A laser cannot start cutting directly on the part geometry without leaving a blemish. You must apply "leads."

: Open the "Part Editor," use "Import Part," and select your file. You can then clean up the drawing by removing dimension lines or construction layers .

Once the part is prepared in the PartEditor, you need to add cutting technology.

Proper lead-ins prevent the initial laser pierce from damaging the finished edge of the part.

Lock specific parts to a mandatory grain direction if your material requires a specific surface finish.

Click a button to generate the cutting path, and apply the "TiltPrevention" feature to ensure small parts stay in place for a reliable, safe process.

Once you have installed BySoft Cam, launch the software and familiarize yourself with the interface. The main window is divided into several sections, including the menu bar, toolbar, and workspace.

Never send code to the machine without simulating.

BySoft CAM tutorials are highly regarded for their practical, process-oriented approach to sheet metal manufacturing, specifically for Bystronic laser and waterjet cutting machines
