Tusyndon Sheet Metal Nester
Creo Sheet Metal Nesting Software: Shape-Driven Motion
Automatically nest sheet metal parts on stock sheets to maximize material utilization, generate cut lists, and track leftover inventory.
Engineering Issues
Manual sheet metal nesting relies heavily on operator experience, leading to inconsistent material utilization. Time-consuming part positioning and suboptimal layouts cause excessive waste and higher material costs.
Input Object
- Flat Pattern DXF File

FAQ
Which file formats are supported?
Creo Sheet Metal Nesting follows the shape. It supports DXF format for flattened parts. Other formats can be evaluated upon submission with engineering samples.
How is utilization calculated?
Utilization is calculated as the ratio of the total part area to the sheet metal area used, accounting for kerf width and minimum spacing requirements.
