A software program for nesting 1-dimensional parts such as bars and rods that minimizes waste and maximizes material usage. Offers 4 different nesting methods and allows for selection of stock priority to achieve optimal packing results.

One of the great features of Cheewoo Nest1D is its flexibility, as it provides four packing options to choose from: minimize remanent length, maximize packing rate, limit remanent length, and limit packing rate. This program also performs high-speed calculation, and performing time for 100 types of stocks and 1000 types of parts with i7-4930 CPU PC takes about 2.0 sec.
Another essential feature is the priority stock setting, which enables users to adapt to special conditions for customized optimal nesting. Additionally, the program offers unlimited undo and redo for stock/part list editing, add-remove-edit features, and a remark column to include additional information such as part name, marking, among others.
Cheewoo Nest1D supports the ability to save detailed nesting result as a CSV file directly readable from Excel. Besides, users can view the detail nesting result on the nesting list window and summary list window. For ease of use, the software provides an on-line help feature.
In conclusion, if you're looking for a program that can save stock material by using computational optimization calculation and minimize remanent size or maximize packing rate, the Cheewoo Nest1D nesting program is an excellent choice. It is especially useful for finding the best part nesting layouts for 1-dimensional stock cutting problems, e.g., bars, tubes, angles, wires, etc., with high speed. We believe that regular use of this program can help you save significant amounts of stocks in real cutting work. For instance, the sample job project ("sample.np1" file in the Cheewoo Nest1D installation directory) that contains 100 different size stocks and 1000 different size parts with random distribution can be nested by this program, resulting in about 99.99% total packing ratio within about a 2.0 second running time on the i7-4390k CPU/Windows7 64bit PC.
