The Most Trusted Tool to determine optimal material usage through geometric nesting of blanks
| • |
Drastic reduction of risk related to inaccurate material cost calculations; reduces supplier variation between estimate and actual costs from 25% to within 1-2% |
| • |
Process 50 times more quotes than manual calculations |
| • |
More accurate scrap estimates for material rebates |
| • |
The cheapest layout, and hence cost, based on manufacturing constraints, as well as tooling costs |
FEATURES:
| • |
Best in Class user interface - for immediate productivity |
| • |
Multiple input formats - IGES, DXF (lines and arcs only) |
| • |
Flexible setup - Optional pitch, coil width, and blank angle constraints to match available equipment and product requirements |
| • |
Multiple Nesting layouts - Fully optimized one up, two up, and standard blank shape nesting layouts |
| • |
Multi-Part Nesting - Two different parts that are manufactured together |
| • |
Cost analysis - Accurate blank cost is calculated, accounting for the tooling costs |
| • |
Interactive results - Sort results in an interactive spread sheet by material utilization, coil width, pitch, rotation angle and translation, including related nesting preview |
| • |
Exporting - The current nesting layout can be exported in IGES or DXF format for use in other applications |
| • |
Reports - Detailed reports showing the nesting layout and calculated results can be printed |
