Fill nesting parameters dialogue box

Parameters for fill nesting

Use standard nesting parameters

Here, you activate that the default values are used for the nesting parameters.

Display nesting parameters

Here, you activate that the Nesting parameters dialogue box is displayed afterwards.

Nest all parts again (with geometry nesting)

With this option, all previous parts of the nesting and the added parts are nested again based on their geometry.

Nest all parts again (with rectangle nesting)

With this option, all previous parts of the nesting and the added parts are nested again based on their hull dimensions.

Nest new parts (optimise nesting)

With this option, only the added parts are nested on free surfaces to optimise the nesting.

Nest into all sheets

With this option, all sheets in the nesting are used for nesting added parts.

Only nest in the last sheet

With this option, only the last sheet of the nesting is used for nesting added parts.

Nest complete quantities only

With this option, parts are only nested if the entire quantity of an order can be accommodated.

Nest partial quantities

With this option, parts are also nested, even if only partial quantities of an order can be accommodated.

Parameters for additional sheets

In this section, you define if and with which settings the existing nesting should be extended if not all parts fit into it.

Use additional sheets for the remaining quantities (with geometry nesting)

With this option, any required sheets are added to the nesting in order to accommodate remaining quantities of orders. The nesting is based on the part geometry.

Use additional sheets for the remaining quantities (with rectangular nesting)

With this option, any required sheets are added to the nesting in order to accommodate remaining quantities of orders. Nesting is based on the hull dimensions of the parts.
