A system for generating a G-code for controlling an operation of a laser-cutting machine to cut parts from a sheet of material, upon receiving cutting data specifying a cutting order of parts and a cutting order of edges of each part, tests the parts for potential distortions and generates a G-code to avoid the potential distortion. For testing a current part, the system detects a potential distortion when the final edge of the current part is adjacent to an edge of a previously cut part scheduled for cutting before the current part according to the cutting order of parts. The system modifies the cutting order to select the modified cutting order for which the final edge is not adjacent to any edge of any previously cut part.
A computer-based system for generating a G-code for controlling an operation of a laser-cutting machine to cut parts from a sheet of material, the system comprising:
A method for reducing distortion of parts cut from a sheet of material by a laser-cutting machine, wherein the method uses a processor coupled with stored instructions implementing the method, wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor carry out steps of the method, comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium embodied thereon a program executable by a processor for performing a method for reducing distortion of parts cut from a sheet of material by a laser-cutting machine, the method comprising:
