SolidNEST Punch
SolidNEST Punch is an automatic nesting, NC, and tool sequencing
solution that runs seamlessly integrated inside SolidWorks. It
offers advanced automation for punch press and turret machines, as
well as the following nesting options:
- Advanced True Shape nesting, to maximize sheet output.
- Automatic nesting of parts between and under clamps resolved
through repositioning.
- Nesting for common line cutting.
- Multiple nesting algorithms to ensure optimal nesting for all
part-types.
Features
- Step-by-step wizard inside the familiar SolidWorks
interface
- Advanced automatic nesting without leaving SolidWorks
- Automatic NC toolpath generation and optimized tool
sequencing
- Sheet metal parts unfolded automatically
- Supports user definable special tools
- Effortless report generation
- Remnant nesting and sheet library control
Advantages
- Effortless NC programming in SolidWorks
- Most powerful nesting algorithms
- Simply refresh nest to reflect design revisions
- One software programs various types of machines
- Punch tool sequence optimization
- Open architecture in post processors producing compact
sub-routine code
- Automatic repositioning and clamp avoidance
- Best sheet selection
Benefits
- Minimize production time
- Using one application for multiple machines streamlines
production and reduces programmer training time
- Changes to design are easily updated in nest without
importing/exporting design revisions
