Geometric NestingWorks 2017 SP1.0

Geometric Ltd., a global leader in 3D CNC machining software, announced the release of NESTINGWorks 2017 3D nesting software for automatically nesting layouts of SOLIDWORKS parts and assemblies for production. This 3D nesting application is seamlessly integrated within SOLIDWORKS 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.

Unlike other nesting applications that use 2D layouts, NESTINGWorks software provides 3D true-shape layouts, which lets designers nest parts of varying thicknesses. The solution is also compatible with all downstream machining and manufacturing applications. Combined with SOLIDWORKS design configuration tools, designers can use NESTINGWorks to nest multiple sets of assembly and or part variants, from a single SOLIDWORKS model.

Bug Fixes in NESTINGWorks 2017 SP0:

CWNEST-1073 Texture is not detected for the attached customer part.
CWNEST-1083 Application crashes when user executes Create Nest Job Command from the NESTINGWorks menu for an assembly.
CWNEST-1071 Add default parameter in INI file for the grain direction.
CWNEST-1085 Part Texture angle is not updated for different Texture part.
