FAQ
Nesting, answered.
How much material does nesting actually save?
It depends on part shapes, but makers commonly see a meaningful reduction in sheets used per batch versus manual layout.
Can I nest different products together?
Yes - mixed products can be nested onto the same sheet to use space more efficiently.
Does it account for kerf between parts?
Yes - spacing accounts for kerf so parts do not touch or overlap when cut.
