Automatically generates optimized CNC toolpaths from design files, validates material specifications, and sends machine-ready G-code to production equipment. This reduces programming time by 75% and minimizes material waste through intelligent nesting and cutting optimization.
Design file uploaded to production queue in ShopVox
Each node represents an automated step. Connections show how data and decisions move through the workflow.
Detailed explanation of each automated stage in the workflow.
Production order with design specifications is submitted through the shop management system. File format and job requirements are captured for processing.
System evaluates if the design specifications match available material thickness and cutting capabilities. Routes to manual review if incompatible materials are detected.
Estimated cutting time and material usage are calculated and sent back to the shop management system. Production queue is automatically updated with job status.
Optimized G-code files are automatically transferred to the designated CNC machine queue. Operator receives cut sheet with material specifications and setup instructions.
