Autodesk Inventor Nesting: Optimizing material efficiency with real shape nesting tools
What is Autodesk Inventor Nesting?
Autodesk Inventor Nesting software helps reduce costs while optimizing material efficiency.
Generate multiple sheet nests with various material and packing options.
Compare efficiency and costs in different studies to maximize work profitability.
Specify allowable orientations to ensure consistent grain direction for aesthetic support or crack prevention.
Why use Autodesk Inventor Nesting?
Minimize waste costs
Include nesting tools to automatically calculate nests that save material costs and engineering time.
Speed up manufacturing
Produce your nests without interruptions, without leaving the familiar Inventor interface.
Improve collaboration
Communicate a summary of your nesting study results with a detailed report for quick decision-making.
Real shape automatic nesting
Generate multiple sheet nests to reduce raw material waste. Optimize material usage in flat cutting operations.
Smooth workflow for creating cutting paths
Create 3D models of a nest and generate cutting paths with Inventor CAM or export DXF™ files. Use DXF files in AutoCAD and other toolpath creation programs.
