• Vision Emulation^™ is what VE stands for. Vision Emulation^™ is a new and exclusive technology invented by Optimation^®. This new technology allows AxiomVE^™ to "see" the shape of the part and "see" the shape of the available material and select the best part at the optimal angle. Previously, nesting systems had to rotate parts in small increments and try to fit the part after each rotation. This is time consuming and leads to wrong results. Some of our competitors brag about rotating parts at one degree increments. That type of trial and error nesting is now obsolete. AxiomVE^™ looks at the part and determines without trial and error the optimal rotation. A part may need to be rotated 124.372 degrees to fit optimally. AxiomVE^™ determines that optimal rotation without undo trial and error.
  
  
• Vision Emulation^™ works much like a human being. When a person nests parts they look at all of the parts and their individual shapes. It is obvious that some parts will fit together well and other parts will fit inside of holes. It is this ability to "see" like a human that sets AxiomVE^™ apart.
  
  
• Backing up Vision Emulation^™ is a new Multi-Dimensional-Combinatorial-Nesting^™ technology (MDCN^™). This new technology transcends previous nesting methods. Until MDCN^™, most nesting algorithms were simple heuristics. Optimation^® is the only company that has developed a nesting technology that considers the alternatives and guarantees the highest efficiency while insuring that production schedule and priorities are optimized. Standard Heuristics crash badly when presented with real world problems. MDCN^™ looks at many different dimensions that affect cost. Schedule, hot parts, material efficiency, order completion, tool optimization, common cutting, torch load and many other costs make finding the optimal nest Multi-Dimensional. Considering all of these costs while finding the right combination of parts is what makes MDCN^™ so powerful.
  
  
• Combining MDCN^™ and Vision Emulation^™ makes AxiomVE^™ the most powerful nesting system in the world.
