PANOGEN – Description
PANOGEN is a set of dedicated tools, intended to assist the different steps of manufacture of sheet metal parts. These tools allow :
– To prepare and to program elementary parts from Catia V5 parts
– To create the nests and optimize the manufacturing files
– To produce the NC codeThis solution is designed to be used for contour following cutting
machines. The following cutting technologies are taken into account :– Laser
– Water jet
– Ultra sonic and electronic cutter
– Milling
Environment– Windows NT

Roles of tools
PAN-SETUP : Administrative tool to adapt the software with the requirements of your cutting machine.
PAN-PRG for sheet metal (CATIA v5 workbench) : Catia V5 integrated tool to create easily the manufacturing program of a sheet metal part (creation of PANOGEN part file )
PAN-NCVERIFY : Verification and simulation of PANOGEN part files.
PAN-NESTORDER : Production management tool to create nesting jobs.
PAN-NESTING (batch) : Automatic nesting optimizer to maximise material utilisation (creation of PANOGEN nest file)
PAN-NESTEDIT : Edition and visualisation of PANOGEN nest files
PAN-PP : Post-processing (generation of NC files)

Terminology
Part file (.pie)File containing all nesting data of a part. This file is generated by the programmer from CATIA V5.
Nest file (.pan)File defining a sheet metal plate or a composite roll and the parts nested inside. This file is generated automatically by PAN-NESTING or manually by PAN-NESTEDIT.
Code Matière Société (CMS)identification number of the material (sized of sheet steel, ribbon of composite), that will be used as nesting support.
NestingNesting of parts in a support to optimize the material usage.
Train (.train)File defining a suite of supports coming from the same job files and generated by a nesting order.
Job files (.job ou .sji)List of orders of a same material to be nested together. The format can vary according to the system of management of workshop used.
OrderEntity of management defining for a part, a quantity to be produced and its priority.
Planning (.pla)File defining several nesting orders of different materials and their associated parameters.
Port-Processor (PP)Tool to convert a Nest file to a NC file (ISO file)
Rivets for skeletonRivets to maintain the pile of sheets, inserted into the support around parts / along the support.
