Marking is primarily used to leave traces without cutting through the material. It can be used to mark text or assembly symbols.
When marking is required, first set the marking toolpath in TubesT nesting software to a layer color distinct from the cutting toolpath (typically defaulting to orange).
Then, in TubePro or FACut cutting software, configure different cutting parameters for each layer to achieve either full-penetration or non-penetration effects.
To modify the color of the marking layer, select your marking layer in the 【Technique Classification】 layer settings.

The original part has been drawn with marking lines. After importing the part, I want to batch-identify the drawn marks as a marking layer. |
Note: When drawing, it is recommended that the marking outline does not overlap with the part's skeleton lines (e.g., solid lines at R corners). |

If none of the above conditions apply and the part has already been imported, to modify the toolpath for marking: In the 【Select】, choose the feature you wish to alter and manually set its layer color to the color designated for preparing marking process parameters.
3. Setting Process Parameters
After separating the layer colors for marking and cutting, perform nesting and sorting operations. Once nesting is complete, export the ZX machining file to the cutting software for process parameter configuration.
The main interface of TubePro is shown below. Click 【Technique】 to set the required process parameters for the corresponding layer.
For example, for 1500W-3000W carbon steel, the marking process can be fine-tuned based on the parameters shown below.
