Automatic true-shape nesting of sheet metal parts on a sheet with utilization and remnant line

Why SRSA NEST

Less scrap, fewer sheets, less time at the computer

SRSA NEST nests parts by their real outline, fills holes of large parts, reuses remnants from previous jobs and turns the finished plan into DXF for your cutting machine. Your engineers focus on production instead of arranging parts by hand.

DXF import with geometry repair

Loads ASCII and binary DXF files and turns them into clean, closed part contours.

True-shape automatic nesting

No-Fit-Polygon nesting of the real part outline – not just bounding rectangles.

Rotation and mirroring per part

Allowed orientations are set directly in the part list – for one part or many at once.

Smart nesting: part-in-part and pairing

Uses the material that simple nesting leaves unused.

Sheet stock and remnants

Full sheets and remnants of any shape in one stock, used in order of priority.

Manual nesting and editing

Every automatic result can be fine-tuned with the mouse and keyboard.

Workflow

From DXF to the cutting machine in five steps

A guided workflow that new operators learn in minutes – and experienced ones finish in seconds.

Select parts

Import DXF files or whole folders and enter quantities.

Edit parts

Set rotation, mirroring and priority – for one part or many at once.

Sheets and gaps

Choose sheet formats and remnants from stock, set gap and margin.

Nesting

Start automatic nesting and fine-tune the result by hand.

Export

Export DXF for the machine, print the report, store remnants.

For sheet metal production

Built for companies that cut sheet metal every day

SRSA NEST works with standard DXF drawings and exports DXF for your machine or CAM software, so it fits into existing workflows for different cutting technologies.

Laser cutting – including a ready-made export profile for CypCut fiber lasers
Plasma cutting
Waterjet cutting
Other CNC cutting technologies that work with DXF

Remnants from previous jobs are used first, so less material ends up as scrap
Parts of several customer jobs share sheets while the report keeps them separate
The shop-floor report shows every sheet with numbered parts and the estimated cutting time
Your drawings never leave your computer – the program works offline
