DG Nest
– True Shape Automatic Nesting, Manual Nesting, Partial Nesting (Triangular, Rectangular, Complex Mix, Beam Layout)
– 2D DXF Viewer (DXF import/export, joined contours in order, joined lines, cutting order preview)
– 2D .NC, NC1 DSTV Viewer (SheetCam’s Rotary Plasma Plugin Support), NC1 to DXF converter
– 3D .NC, NC1 DSTV Viewer, Profile hole clusters (matrices) creator (.NC1 export)
– Profile/Beams module basic G-code export
DG Nest has two modules: Regular nesting and Profiles nesting
"Regular nesting " is 2D nesting on rectangular and irregular sheet + export as dxf
"Profiles nesting" is linear nesting of profiles/beams layouts. Before nesting operator set all profiles parameters. Export as dxf or g-code. Extension to SheetCam's rotary pipe/plasma plugin.
Operator can nest parts, import nesting_result.dxf in SheetCam and make tool-paths / g-code. DGNest (CAD) has options which SheetCam (CAM) has not, in collaboration they are highly-efficient.
