Pronest 8 Info

For modern applications, Hypertherm typically recommends upgrading to the latest version of

If you have a mixed-process shop (e.g., a plasma table and a waterjet), ProNest 8 allows you to maintain separate process libraries for each machine within a single license file.

ProNest 8 (v8) is a legacy version of the advanced CAD/CAM nesting software developed by Hypertherm pronest 8

Deep integration with Hypertherm’s hardware (torch height control, gas console, bevel head) results in fewer cut defects and better corner geometry than generic nesting software.

ProNest 8 introduces DPC, which allows you to assign different cutting parameters to different features of the same part. For heavy plate (up to 12 inches thick),

For heavy plate (up to 12 inches thick), ProNest 8 sequences preheat times and manages multi-pass bevel cutting.

Pronest 8 boasts an impressive array of features that make it an ideal solution for nesting and fabrication. Some of the key features include: For modern applications

ProNest 8 features and Common Line Cutting , which reduce the number of piercings required.

Direct native 3D CAD modeling interfaces (SolidWorks, Inventor, Creo). Basic linear and nested rectangular packing algorithms.
