Systems and methods for cloud-based expertise delivery via APIs

A method for generating a part program design for an industrial cutting system using expertise data, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a computing device, industrial cutting system data, workpiece data, and part data corresponding to a part to be processed from a workpiece by an industrial cutting system communicatively coupled to the computing device;
• receiving, by an expertise integration system communicatively coupled to the computing device, the industrial cutting system data, workpiece data, and part data using an application program interface;
• identifying, by the expertise integration system, a plurality of features of the part to be processed by the industrial cutting system based on expertise data and the received industrial cutting system data, workpiece data, and part data;
• generating, by the expertise integration system, a part program design to be performed on the workpiece, wherein the part program design is configured to adjust normal operation of the industrial cutting system during processing of at least one of the plurality of identified features of the part;
• receiving, by the computing device, the generated part program design using the application program interface;
• and
• processing the part by the industrial cutting system using the generated part program design.
