Geometric NestingWorks 2016 for SolidWorks 2012-2016 win64 ndustry-leading Nesting technology connects SOLIDWORKS® 3D Design to manufacturing, boosting productivity while simplifying the transition from design to manufacturing Scottsdale, AZ, USA, & Mumbai, India – January 27, 2016: Geometric Ltd. (BSE:532312, NSE:GEOMETRIC), a global leader in 3D CNC machining software, today announced the release of NESTINGWorks™ 2016 3D nesting software for automatically nesting layouts of SOLIDWORKS® parts and assemblies for production. This new 3D nesting application is seamlessly integrated within SOLIDWORKS 2016 software, enabling automated nesting of flat or 3D part or assembly models made from sheet stock, including sheet metal, plates, plastics, composites, or wood. NESTINGWorks software leverages Geometric’s industry-leading NESTLib® true-shape 3D technology—known to nesting application developers worldwide as one of the fastest and most fully featured automatic true-shape nesting libraries available in the industry. With NESTINGWorks, product designers can efficiently optimize sheetstock layouts—including specifications for grain direction—so they can produce the maximum number of parts from a single piece of raw material in a matter of minutes, saving time, while simultaneously minimizing material usage. TRUE SHAPE NESTING Orient parts true to shape, to optimize how parts can fit on a shape. Many simple nesting tools just draw a box around a part and nest the box, wasting valuable material. PART-IN-PART NESTING Enables the ability to maximize material usage by fitting smaller parts in open areas and cutouts on larger parts of the same thickness. AUTO LAYOUT OF PARTS OF VARYING THICKNESS Many assemblies have parts of various thicknesses that need to be nested. NESTINGWorks can sort the parts in an assembly and automatically group and nest parts of the same thickness ASSOCIATIVITY WITH SOLIDWORKS As your design changes, any NESTINGWorks layouts will update. Also compatible with downstream manufacturing tools.
