Remnant Nesting
SigmaNEST Remnant Nesting expands the functionality of the True Shape nesting package with the addition of automatic nesting on arbitrarily shaped remnant sheets, automatic plate cropping and remnant creation and multi-head nesting on remnants.
This page provides detailed information on the Remnant nesting package. Summaries of just the differences between the less capable True Shape nesting and Remnant nesting and between Remnant nesting and the next level, Maximizer package, are also available.
General Usability
- Almost every aspect of the product can be configured.
- Auto Save automatically saves parts whenever they are changed and saves snapshots of the work space at specified time intervals.
- Up to 10 versions of the work space are saved and any previous revision can be re-opened.
- Quickly zoom in and out with mouse wheel. Zooming is centered on the mouse pointer, effectively allowing a simultaneous pan and zoom.
- Batch facility allows sequences of operations to be stored in a file and "played back" as a unit whenever needed.
