This new 3D nesting application is seamlessly integrated within SOLIDWORKS 2016 software, enabling

NESTINGWorks software leverages Geometrics industryleading NESTLib trueshape 3D technology
known to nesting application developers worldwide as one of the fastest and most fully featured
automatictrueshapenestinglibrariesavailableintheindustry.WithNESTINGWorks,productdesigners
can efficiently optimize sheetstock layoutsincluding specifications for grain directionso they can

in less time while optimizing material usage, says Mike Buchli, Vice President of Karl W. Schmidt &
Associates, a leading manufacturer of custom recycling systems. Because CAMWORKS and
NESTINGWorks are integrated inside SOLIDWORKS, the time and cost savings associated with the
seamlessprocessenableustoreduceourpricessignificantly,whichhelpsuswinmorebusiness.
Unlike other nesting applications that use 2D layouts, NESTINGWorks software provides 3D trueshape
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,fromasingleSOLIDWORKSmodel.
