text: Hypertherm, a manufacturer of advanced cutting systems, has announced a number of feature enhancements to its ProNest nesting software, allowing users to increase the cut quality, productivity, and profitability of their operations.
  Enhancements include the addition of OneClick, a production module that automates various tasks in a job. The user sets up actions required completing a job just once and OneClick does the rest, with limited intervention.
  ProNest Version 10.1 also includes Data Sync, a module that allows customers to add and update plates from their material requirements planning/enterprise resource planning system to ProNest’s plate inventory.
