Display Splicing Lines

Splicing Lines are points in a marker where fabrics can be cut and the next piece overlapped to maintain a continuous spread and to avoid excessive fabric waste and incomplete pieces. Splicing marks are automatically calculated to reduce waste when spreading.
This command will display the splicing marker on the marker table. Those marks are a function of two parameters: The current pieces nesting and the minimum And maximum Splicing length values that are defined.

Note: In order to plot out Splicing Lines on the marker - the plot splice marks have to be checked in the Plot dialog box.

Location

Menu: View > Splicing lines > Display Splicing Lines.

To display splicing lines:

  1. Enable the Advanced Splicing method in the preferences.

  2. Place the pieces on the Marker.

  3. Enter the Splicing Length values in the Splicing Table.

  4. If recalculating of the splicing lines is necessary, due to changes in the marker layout, or if another other splicing algorithm is selected – invoke the Calculate Splicing Lines.
