Two types of Dodge Cutting head dodge: the cutting head can skip the MidChuck and cut between the MainChuck(B1) and the MidChuck(B2). MidChuck dodge:The chuck(B2) moves forward over the cutting head, so the MainChuck is closer to the cutting head. |
DryRun | The difference between the DryRun and the actual cutting is: the DryRun does not turn on the laser, does not turn on the gas. Used for a complete inspection and simulation of the overall machining without actually cutting. |
Dynamic Array | Duplicate selected objects in an Array by dragging the mouse. |

Generalized Cutoff | A graphic usually has two cutoff lines, the first and the last cutting shapes of a part, which are referred to as the front cutoff line and the rear cutoff line, respectively. In addition to the front and rear cutoff lines, there may also be other cutoff lines, known as generalized cutoff lines. |

Smart LaserOff | Aka, Slag-free cutting. It is a function that aims to reduce the unwanted residue or slag that forms along the cut edges of the material being processed. |
Smart Piercing | BLT intelligent cutting head monitors the perforation process in real-time through sensors. Once a hole is pierced, it stops the perforation and immediately proceeds to the next piercing action. This effectively saves perforation time and improves production efficiency. Additionally, it helps to prevent issues such as blowouts, part scrap, and damage to nozzles or protective lenses that can occur when cutting starts before complete penetration of the hole. This capability greatly reduces the risk and cost associated with consumables. |
Smart Sort | According to the position of the zero reference and the nesting of the parts, the optimal cutting path is automatically set. The options are By-part Sort and In-part Sort. |
Smooth Line | Fitting polyline shapes with smooth curves and reducing discontinuous turning points to improve machining speed.Knit precision: When the distance between the first and last endpoints of a curve is less than the Knit Precision, it is allowed to merge/knit them. |
Smooth Piercing | Smooth Pierce. By leveraging the advantages of a bus system, precise light emission is achieved in advance during the travel process, enabling fast piercing at high positions. This saves piercing time and enhances the efficiency of thin sheet metal processing. Aka, Fast Cutting, Ultradynamic Cutting.
