Furniture Production
Prepare Parts
Reads each part’s outline (Finished Size), thickness and sheet material off its solid, lays it flat, turns grained parts so their grain runs along the sheet’s grain and locks their rotation, validates it against the Production Line’s router, and groups it into one branch per sheet material so a nesting node run once per material. Banded parts are output as Cut Size blocks, and parts narrower than the edgebander takes as Narrow Blanks.
