Autodesk® Inventor® Nesting software helps to reduce cost while optimizing yield from flat raw material.
Generate multiple sheet nests with multiple material and packaging options.
Compare efficiency and costs in different studies to maximize job profitability.
Specify allowable orientations to ensure consistent grain direction for aesthetic support or crack prevention.
Inventor Nesting overview (video: 1:59 min.)
Include nesting tools to automatically calculate nests that save on material costs and engineering time.
Produce your nests seamlessly without leaving the familiar Inventor interface.
Communicate a summary of your nesting study results with a detailed report for quick decision making.
Generate multiple sheet nests to reduce raw material waste. Optimize the use of materials in flat cutting operations.
Create 3D models of a nest and generate cutting paths with Inventor CAM, or export DXF™ files. Use DXF files in AutoCAD and other toolpath-making software.
