Manual Nesting
Collision-less Mode
AutoNest provides a very efficient collision-less mode, that helps you avoid collisions by not allowing you to place one part upon another.
If you try to do so, the part stops in a non-colliding position (see the green contour in the picture below). If you release your mouse button when the new part is positioned on top of another, AutoNest automatically snaps the new part to the closest non-colliding position available.

-
Tooling
Most of cncKad’s CAM editing functionalities are available in AutoNest so you can change the tooling and the processing for the whole nest or specific parts.
-
Dynamic Common Cuts
AutoNest automatically positions parts so adjoining edges are processed at the same time with dynamic common cuts.
-
Remnant Handling
The remnant handling feature allows you to save partially used sheets for future nesting solutions.
-
Multiple Sheet Solutions

-
Multiple Material Nests
Parts from different materials are sorted automatically and nested on appropriate sheets.
-
Manual Nesting
AutoNest manual nesting allows you to position parts interactively.
-
Nest According to Turret Restrictions
AutoNest arranges parts on the SubNests, calculating the solution based on the restrictions dictated by the particular machine turret.
-
Tubes
Easily nest your tubes in AutoNest.
-
Reports
