DG Nest Pro

This is a computer aided sheet metal manufacturing program.

DG Nest Pro is a true shape Automatic Nesting solution for sheet metal work. The software is able to support any form (symmetric or asymmetric) in DXF file. It will then prepare it for machine cutting process. It supports most of the popular and common cutting processes such as oxy-fuel, plasma, laser, water jet, etc. This solution is useful in a range of industries including textile, metal, wood, ship-building industry or any industry that needs sheet cutting and production over CNC machines. How fast the DXF loads and nesting session completed will depend on the complexity of the CAD drawing outputs. What is important is the point density in circles and arcs used in the drawing. Nesting of parts on a sheet can help make manufacturing easier and placing the components optimally can save you material significantly. This tool is claimed to be able to save 10 to 15% material easily.

DG Nest Pro can nest 100 parts in less than 3 minutes, thus saving time and it will take care of nesting in multi sheet/multi size sheet/automatic nesting situations. The tool will provide unlimited sheet/table dimensions (user can add new dimensions). It also provides scrap sheet multi nesting/material usability increased significantly. Reports available give you approximate indication of parts/items area and their weight. The output is in DXF R12 format and takes care of automatic cut order and inner contours (sub items) cutting first. The interface is quite intuitive and just about any designer should be able to get productive with it in short time. This is a very good product. If you are looking for a similar solution, you should try it in your exact workflow.

'DG Nest Pro' is full manually and full true shape automatic nesting software. For professional users 'DG Nest Pro' collaborate with 'SheetCam', popular CAM software,
through 'DG Nest Pro'/'SheetCam' plugin. Before user load dxf files directly via 'DG Nest Pro' and start nesting, he rather choose SheetCam to create cut paths and other
CAM settings, then he can export SheetCam dxf to DGNestPro for nesting. All parts will be nested considering that cut paths, leadins/outs and loops will not be overlapped. SheetCam support dxf format and 180 other post processors. 'DG Nest Pro' true shape automatic nesting software provide all kind of geometric shapes nesting, 'in holes' nesting, multi sheet nesting, multi sheet (different sheet sizes) nesting, scrap database management and scrap multi nesting. 'DG Nest Pro' can save 10-15% of your material on every nesting session, and more on scrap sheet nesting session.
