A, What functional upgrades does the WEIHONG V20 Software offer compared to the previous V10 system?

In the current era of rapid development in the waterjet cutting industry, the intelligence and convenience of equipment control systems directly determine cutting efficiency, material utilization, and the production experience. WEIHONG, a leading brand of waterjet cutting control systems, continuously adapts its V20 system to the actual processing needs of factories through iterative upgrades. Building upon the mature V10 system, the V20 system features targeted functional optimizations and innovative upgrades. This iteration eliminates redundant modifications, focusing on production pain points and operational difficulties. Two core new features are automatic nesting and multi-language switching without restarting, comprehensively improving equipment production efficiency and adaptability, thus enhancing the quality and efficiency of waterjet cutting production.

I. Core Major Upgrade: Added Intelligent Automatic nesting  Function, Solving Traditional Processing Pain Points

During the long-term use of the V10 system, the nesting  process has always been a key bottleneck restricting production efficiency. The V10 system lacked automatic layout capabilities; all tasks related to workpiece cutting drawings, including layout optimization, gap adjustment, and surplus material utilization, required manual completion by operators. Faced with cutting workpieces of various specifications, in small batches, and in multiple batches, manual layout is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring highly experienced operators, but also prone to problems such as sparse layout, unreasonable arrangement, and serious material waste. Furthermore, errors in manual nesting can indirectly affect cutting accuracy, significantly increasing production and time costs for enterprises.

The V20 system specifically adds a fully automatic intelligent nesting function, becoming the core highlight of this version upgrade. It completely restructures the pre-processing flow of waterjet cutting, bringing multiple substantial improvements to production, specifically in three dimensions:

1. Extreme Raw Material Saving and Reduced Production Costs

The system is equipped with intelligent algorithms that can automatically identify the dimensions, shape, and quantity of workpiece drawings, and perform high-density, rational nesting according to the sheet metal specifications. It accurately calculates workpiece spacing and corner allowances, minimizing ineffective blank areas. Compared to the randomness and experience limitations of manual nesting, intelligent nesting can significantly improve sheet metal utilization and effectively reduce waste of corner materials. It is especially suitable for high-priced cutting raw materials such as stainless steel, stone, aluminum alloy, and specialty glass, helping enterprises significantly reduce material loss costs in the long run.

2. Significantly Reduces Material Preparation Time and Improves Production Efficiency: Traditional manual nesting often requires hours of manual adjustment, comparison, and optimization for complex batches of workpieces, resulting in a cumbersome and inefficient process. The V20 automatic nesting function can intelligently lay out batches of workpieces with a single click, generating the optimal nesting plan in seconds. This eliminates the need for repeated manual adjustments and modifications, completely freeing up manual operation. The pre-layout process improves efficiency several times over, effectively reducing equipment downtime and ensuring the waterjet cutting equipment operates at high efficiency, significantly increasing the overall daily production capacity.

3. Standardized nesting Operations, Avoiding Human Error: Manual nesting is heavily influenced by operator experience and condition, easily leading to uneven nesting, misalignment, and insufficient interference allowance. This can result in material waste or, in severe cases, scrapped workpieces and the risk of equipment collisions. The V20 system's automatic nesting  function follows standardized algorithm logic, ensuring high nesting accuracy and consistent rules. It precisely avoids workpiece cutting interference, guaranteeing the standardization and consistency of nesting for each batch of workpieces, reducing processing scrap rates, and allowing even novice operators to quickly complete professional-level nesting tasks, lowering the personnel threshold for enterprises.

II. Enhanced User Experience: Added Real-Time Multilingual Switching Function, No Equipment Restart Required

With the globalization of waterjet cutting equipment and the increasing number of cross-regional labor scenarios, the language compatibility of the equipment system has become an important user requirement. The V10 system only supports a single default language and lacks a built-in multilingual switching module. Changing the system language requires modifying system configuration, restarting the software, or even restarting the entire machine, a cumbersome and time-consuming process that interrupts ongoing processing and debugging, severely impacting production continuity.

The V20 system comprehensively optimizes its international compatibility capabilities, adding a real-time multilingual switching function, achieving a leap forward in user experience. The system has built-in multilingual data packages, supporting free switching between Chinese, English, and mainstream minor languages. Its biggest advantage is that language switching requires no software restart or machine downtime. Operators can switch the system display language with a single click in any state, including equipment operation, program debugging, and processing standby. The interface text, function menus, parameter prompts, and alarm information are updated synchronously in real time, completing the switchover in seconds.

This function greatly enhances the equipment's versatility and adaptability. It meets the overseas usage needs of export-oriented equipment and is also compatible with domestic and foreign-invested enterprises, foreign operators, and multilingual work teams. It avoids production interruptions caused by traditional language switching shutdowns and restarts, ensuring a smooth and efficient production process. Simultaneously, it reduces the learning cost of cross-language operation, making equipment operation more convenient and user-friendly.

III. Upgrade Summary: Precisely Adapting to Needs, Achieving Dual Improvement in Efficiency and User Experience

Compared to the mature and stable V10 system, the upgrade of the Weihong V20 waterjet cutting system precisely focuses on two core dimensions: production efficiency and user experience. The newly added automatic nesting function addresses production pain points such as material waste, time-consuming manual processes, and non-standard nesting at the source, enabling intelligent upgrades to pre-processing steps and reducing costs and increasing efficiency for enterprises. The no-restart multi-language switching function fills the gaps in internationalization and user-friendly operation, adapting to diverse and global production scenarios.

Overall, the V20 system is not simply a collection of functions, but a deep optimization based on actual industry production scenarios. It allows waterjet cutting equipment to achieve higher production precision, higher processing efficiency, and better usability, providing a more intelligent, stable, and efficient control system solution for waterjet cutting of various sheet metal and irregularly shaped workpieces.
