I have run pro nest for several years, or at least have personnel that have operated it for awhile. Recently in the pipe program of pro nest I started seeing discrepancies when creating a flat pattern for a square to round transition all of the transitions that I layout are about one material thickness off. I see a for 4 inch od 14ga. tube the flat pattern should be 12.2704 long in the flat, pro nest is generating 12.3289. I can cheat it by changing the base size, OD size, etc and my flat patterns come out correct. It acts like there is a K factor that is not correct, but I have no idea if they work with a K factor or not. I guess I am looking for any suggestions that might help with a remedy for this.
