Siemens Solid Edge 2D Nesting 2023_2210 (x64)
File size: 140 MB
With Solid Edge 2D Nesting, generate optimized layouts for the two-dimensional cutting of fabrication materials, including sheet metal, plastic, wood, fabric and textiles. 2D Nesting saves fabricators time and money by allowing them to manage material use more effectively.
The process of 2D nesting, or the organization of 2D shapes efficiently on a single cutting plane, is much like processes dressmakers have used for decades. The optimized nesting patterns, created using a next-generation nesting algorithm, markedly reduce preparation time, waste and costs.
Capabilities
Powerful nesting, comprehensive control
From start to finish, 2D Nesting makes creating optimized nests quick and easy.
Complete control at your hands
Control all settings needed to meet the demands of any cutting technology or material, easily select part quantities, sheet sizes and part rotation.
Tightly integrated with Solid Edge Mechanical Design
Launch directly from Solid Edge with a single click. Selecting parts to import for nesting is quick and easy.
Work with multiple file formats
2D Nesting supports Solid Edge sheet metal and part files (PSM and PAR), as well as neutral data formats including DXF and DWG, automatically extracting flat pattern data.
Reduce wasted material
Select multiple sheet sizes to create the most efficient nest, eliminating tailings, or partial sheets. These tailings often result in wasted material, as the odd leftover sheets take up valuable shop space and often go unused.
Optimized for CNC Programming
The nests can be sent to Solid Edge CAM Pro or exported to another computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) system for computer numerical control (CNC) programming.
Save time, avoid translation
An integrated round trip within the Solid Edge environment saves...
