 Forming Suite - BlankNest - Blank Nesting Software
The Most Trusted Tool to determine optimal material usage through geometric nesting of blanks
- Drastic reduction of risk related to inaccurate material cost calculations; reduces supplier variation between estimate and actual costs from 25% to within 1-2%
- Process 50 times more quotes than manual calculations
- More accurate scrap estimates for material rebates
- The cheapest layout, and hence cost, based on manufacturing constraints, as well as tooling costs
FEATURES
- Best in Class user interface - for immediate productivity
- Multiple input formats - IGES, DXF (lines and arcs only)
- Flexible setup - Optional pitch, coil width, and blank angle constraints to match available equipment and product requirements
- Multiple Nesting Layouts - Fully optimized one up, two up, and standard blank shape nesting layouts
- Multi-Part Nesting - Two different parts that are manufactured together
- Cost Analysis - Accurate blank cost is calculated, accounting for the tool costs
- Interactive Results - Sort results in an interactive spreadsheet by material utilization, coil width, pitch, rotation angle and translation, including related nesting preview
- Exporting - The current nesting layout can be exported in IGES or DXF format for use in other applications
- Reports - Detailed reports showing the nesting layout and calculated results can be printed
"Over the 6-year lifecycle, $4,272,450 is the actual cost savings that is being applied towards a current automotive program." Scott Moore, Spartanburg Steel Products
