Blasting

Production > Plate Cutting Data > Blasting

Define the following.

Blasting Max. Plate Thickness

The maximum plate thickness for blasting. Plates with a thickness up to this value will get blast lines. Blasting can be disabled by setting this value to 0.

Blasting Line Offset

The offset of a blast line from a marking line. A negative value indicates that the offset is relative to the thickness (-0.5 means half the thickness). A positive value indicates an absolute offset.

Blasting Contour Offset

The offset of a blasting line for outer contours, and for inner contours with face plates.

Blasting Maximum Opening

The maximum opening in the outer contour that will be crossed by a blasting line. The blasting line will stop if it encounters an opening with a size larger than the value set here, and will continue afterwards.

Blast Types

Select the items that will create a blast line on a plate. By default, no types are set. The following types are supported:

• Profile marking lines
• Plate marking lines
• Plate contour
• Face plate in hole
