Geometric NestingWorks 2018 SP1.0 Build 2018/0222

Geometric Ltd., a global leader in 3D CNC machining software, has released an update to NESTINGWorks 2018, 3D nesting software for automatically nesting layouts of SOLIDWORKS parts and assemblies for production. This 3D nesting application is seamlessly integrated within SOLIDWORKS 2018 software, enabling automated nesting of flat or 3D part or assembly models made from sheet stock, including sheet metal, plates, plastics, composites, or wood.

NESTINGWorks 2018x64 SP1 Release Notes:

Bug Fixes in NESTINGWorks 2018 SP1
CWNEST-1456 (CSR-3859) For a specific solid part, CAM data (features, operations and toolpaths) has been generated using the CAMWorks application. If the toolpaths for the part are simulated using the Simulate Toolpath command of CAMWorks and the part is then opened in NESTINGWorks, it causes NESTINGWorks to crash.
CWNEST-1279 (CSR-2267) Nesting Preview dialog is empty after user perform create nest jobs
CWNEST-687 (CSR-2086) NESTINGWorks Leftover Material DXF Sheet Option
CWNEST-1272 (CSR-2024) Part to Part value in INI file is not updated in the Nested assembly.

Note: For the full list of new and improved features, please refer to the release notes located in the folder of your NestingWorks 2018 SP1.0.


About Geometric NestingWorks. NESTINGWorks is an automatic, true-shape nesting program from Geometric Americas, Inc. that easily creates fast and efficient nested layouts. Once installed, it is seamlessly integrated with the CAD application of SOLIDWORKS and allows nesting of flat or 3D solid or sheet metal parts and assemblies. The nested output is a SOLIDWORKS assembly file for each unique sheet layout. NESTINGWorks can be used to create efficient layouts of metal, wood or composite based materials, producing the maximum number of parts from a single piece of raw material within minutes.

NESTINGWorks software leverages Geometric’s industry-leading NESTLib true-shape 3D technology—known to nesting application developers worldwide as one of the fastest and most fully featured automatic true-shape nesting libraries available in the industry. With NESTINGWorks, product designers can efficiently optimize sheetstock layouts—including specifications for grain direction—so they can produce the maximum number of parts from a single piece of raw material in a matter of minutes, saving time, while simultaneously minimizing material usage.

Unlike other nesting applications that use 2D layouts, NESTINGWorks software provides 3D true-shape layouts, which lets designers nest parts of varying thicknesses. The solution is also compatible with all downstream machining and manufacturing applications. Combined with SOLIDWORKS design configuration tools, designers can use NESTINGWorks to nest multiple sets of assembly and or part variants, from a single SOLIDWORKS model.
