: The software automatically checks for sheet metal rules and creates the unfolding.
Before any work begins, a verified installation is critical. TruTops Boost must run on a physical computer, not a virtual system, as it is not released for operation in a virtual system environment. Installation requires local administrator rights. The software is typically supplied on a DVD-ROM, which can be installed directly or copied to a local or network drive.
Drag and drop your CAD files. TruTops Boost natively supports a wide array of formats, including standard 3D files (STEP, IGES), 2D files (DXF, DWG), and native proprietary CAD formats.
For material > 8mm, do not use a single cut.
Manually place lead-ins, add microjoints, or alter cutting paths. Step-by-Step Programming Workflow
Select the prepared parts from your library and input the required production quantities.
If you want to dive deeper into a specific stage of this workflow, let me know! I can provide detailed instructions on , configuring laser cutting rules , or resolving bending collision errors . Share public link
Import 2D/3D geometries (DXF, STEP, CAD, etc.). Create an order in the Home Zone by defining material, thickness, and quantity.
Click in the Home Zone and select your file ( .step , .iges , .dxf , or native SolidWorks/Inventor files).
Export the setup sheet (PDF) for the machine operator, detailing sheet weight, runtime, and the required nozzle type. Core Troubleshooting and Best Practices
If you want, I can create a printable verification checklist, a one-page quick-start, or a detailed step-by-step for a specific TRUMPF machine model. Which would you prefer?
Open the part in the window if it requires unfolding.
The system applies "Lean Nest" for material efficiency, combining technology (cutting paths, microjoints) directly in the nesting view.
With your parts imported and orders created, it's time to generate the production-ready programs.
The defining feature of the Home Zone is the "Boost" button. When clicked, the software automatically runs background algorithms to calculate sheet metal unfoldings, create nesting layouts, and generate NC toolpaths without manual intervention. 2. The Tec Zone (The Expert)
