Stock material comes in various sizes and each has its own cost. In turn, this identifies the most cost-effective solution. After creating multiple nest studies with different packaging options and strategies, you can use the compare dialog to make data-driven decisions. This value determines the cost of your nest studies - it even considers the remnant material. Here are a few parameters that can be modified and compared: Material costsĪ cost value can be associated with each packaging option, defined in the Process Material Library.

The Compare dialog can help you make data-driven decisions about your manufacturing strategy for every job. Reduce costsĬomparing different strategies to reduce costs is easy when you can create multiple nest studies side by side in a single document. Automate this process with the Fusion 360 Nesting & Fabrication Extension to create optimized and associative multi-sheet and multi-material nests in preparation for cutting on CNC machines. Manually nesting your parts for manufacturing is a timely, non-value-added process that results in excess material usage. Learn how automating the nesting process with the Fusion 360 Nesting & Fabrication Extension saves you valuable resources.
