Wire cutting with TracTrix

Are you faced with the problem where your customers come to you with paper sketches or scans of logos or other 2D parts and want you to deliver a new wire-cut part? Or have they come to you with a sample to copy and replicate yesterday?

Many wire cutting users, who are used to getting clean CAD files, give up immediately and leave it to their customers to figure out how to deliver a useable CAD file for the wire cutting software. Is this a cause of ‘opportunities lost’ because you thought that it was too difficult or cumbersome to achieve? Did you lose a potential customer or wire cutting job because you didn’t have a solution?

   If your potential customers can deliver scans of paper or actual parts, TracTrix can convert them to CAD files useable on your wire machine. If sketches or paper drawings are delivered they can be scanned and TracTrix can also convert them to CAD. 

If a solid sample is delivered for you to replicate or reverse engineer, it is a simple task to manually trace around the edge of the part to be copied, scan the tracing and use TracTrix to create a CAD file that can be edited to perfection for use on the wire machine. The CAD file can also be used in whatever nesting program your wire cutting program may have.

TracTrix can help you to capture opportunities or even better, help create them.
