Hypertherm, a U.S. based manufacturer of plasma, laser, and water-jet cutting systems, is introducing Version 11.1 of its ProNest software, which includes enhanced features. One new feature is a new quoting tool that can calculate per part and total costs for any job. The program is ideal for job shops, metal service centers, and other fabricators who need to quote work to external customers, officials say. In addition to using baseline material and production costs, the tool is capable of including secondary operations in the final cost, and the addition of markups or discounts for certain customers and jobs.
