Cutting and manufacturing technologies

Increase your efficiency with every cut. Optimally nest bevel parts and use state-of-the-art lead-in, lead-out and corner technologies – from I- to VDS, VAS, YDS, YAS, X- to K-bevels as well as variable bevels. 

Benefit from integrated bevel process databases for consistently high component quality. Assign specific quality levels to your bevel geometries and get the most out of your cutting process. Intelligently sequence multiple cuts and rely on full compatibility with all Messer bevel cutting heads for laser, plasma and oxyfuel.

Create drilling operations in CAD mode

Design and define drilling tasks directly within your CAD environment. Drill holes can be inserted into drawings, converted from existing points, or generated via the command line for maximum flexibility. A wide range of drilling types such as through holes, tapped holes, blind holes, and deep drilling are fully supported, including variations with countersinking. Every detail can be set precisely, and all operations are displayed in 3D, ensuring complete accuracy and transparency, even down to the thread representation.

Efficient tool and process management

The OmniWin Option Drill includes an integrated drill tool database, making it simple to select and manage tools for every job. Drill holes are clearly visualized in both drawings and nesting layouts, giving operators full control over the process. Users can manually sequence drill holes, group them for efficiency, or rely on the automatic sequencing function, which optimizes the drilling order—for example, when tapping or creating pilot holes before thermal cutting. With built-in machining time calculation, production planning becomes more accurate, predictable, and cost-efficient.
