Hypertherm adds new features to Rotary Tube Pro

Hypertherm has announced a minor version update of Rotary Tube Pro™ software that simplifies designing and cutting tube and pipe parts, with no 3D CAD experience required.

The update includes a number of new features designed to speed the programming process. For example, automatic nesting now is standard, allowing software users to nest multiple quantities of the same part or different parts on stock tube. Users can add parts to the part list and build a stock list for nesting, maintain the seam orientation during nesting, add part spacing, and choose how the software selects stock.

Other new features include the ability to store multiple parts and nests, plus an advanced edit feature that allows users to adjust preferences manually, such as lead size and position, along with cut sequence. The software also includes features that allow users to pin commonly used lead styles to the top of the list for quick access and offers more powerful reports to better track nests and stock usage.
