Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Tab/Tag Software

Also - HeeksCAD/CNC does tabs. I think they're called tags.

I believe Sheetcam does tabs, and it is pretty inexpensive as far as CAM
programs go.

Subject: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Tab/Tag Software

Hi All

Does anyone know of any tabbing/tagging software that will automatically apply
tabs to a 2D cut to stop the cut items from falling from the panel?
It could be applied at any stage really - either at the CAD stage - perhaps on
the dxf file or at the gcode stage.
All of my stuff in this instace will be 2D panel work, but the system can handle
3d - perhaps on the last pass of a multipass cut, it could leave tabs (maybe
just stack the 2D cuts - 2.5D really).

I've had a look at Vectrics 2dCut which looks OK and can handle the job, but a
bit over the top for what I need as I already have DeskCNC which does everything
(apart from tab cutting that is :-)))

TIA

Neil
