- Laser-cutting shops nesting DXF parts
- Worth noticing
- AutoNest runs suitable engines across CPU cores, then ranks plans by part placement, sheet count, and solid offcut.
Field notes
The page breaks down several distinct approaches, including strip layouts for mixed bars and plates, grid placement with a fine angle search, and genetic layouts using no-fit polygons. It says AutoNest ranks plans first by whether all parts fit, then by sheet count and largest solid offcut. The downloadable application is described as offline-capable and available in English and Vietnamese.
