 ===Cutting from the edge of the sheet===
-In case the cutting is done on a thick sheet, it can be hard to perform the initial cut in order to break through the material for the first time. In this case, the edge cutting function can be used, since the breakthrough process is a lot less demanding if performed on the edge of the sheet. In this mode, a spot for the cut will be selected, the part itself is selected through scrolling to the necessary cutting command (as shown above), after which the operator can move the machine from the cutting position to the closest point at the edge of the material sheet and turn on the edge cutting mode.

   * part shifting
 Using the software functions provided, the operator can create a simple cutting control program straight from the CNC machine in a couple of minutes, without having to consult the engineering department or having to use expensive CAM software. In certain cases, the user can forego using CAM software entirely, by simply using the bundled-in functions of the myCNC parts library.

+===Importing and converting DXF into G-code===
+myCNC software allows to import simple CAD files in the DXF format and is able to convert them to control programs in G-code. As well as importing the movement trajectory, one can also add the cutting specifications and the reverse movements for the machine by entering the length and the type of the cut (straight or on a curve).
+The results of the system working with such an imported DXF file, library parts, or part multiplication are saved as G-code files. Therefore, the myCNC software can be used with third-party CNC control systems to prepare the necessary G-code commands.
+===Cut Charts===
+myCNC software makes it possible to create cut charts for different types of plasma cutting sources. The list of parameters that the operator indicates when loading a module from a table can be configured. Usually the following parameters are considered:
+  * material (regular steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, etc)
+  * thickness
+  * cutting current
+When loading the control system, the following parameters will be loaded from the cut charts (provided they have been inputted)
+  * cutting speed
+  * ignition height
+  * punching height
+  * punching time
+  * cutting height (arc reference voltage for THC)
+  * Cutting current
+  * The magnitude of current decrease at the trajectory corners
+  * Cut width adjustment (Kerf)
+  * Crawling speed (during punching through)
+  * Driving time at creeping speed (when punching)
+  * The delay time to enable tracking after punching
+  * Gas parameters for manual and automatic Hypertherm console (type of cutting and shielding gases, MixGas1, MixGas2 gas mix values, plasma torch cutting and shielding channel pressure values during Preflow and Cut)
+  * Consumable components of the plasma torch as auxiliary information for the operator of the machine (types of electrodes, nozzle, protective nozzle, protective cap, swirl and water tube)
