Today, 3D CAD models are driving downstream manufacturing processes. Whether you are a small job shop, large equipment manufacturer, or something in between, it’s critical for you to effectively integrate your nesting solution with the CAD programs you’ve already invested in.
CAD Integration
Designed for integration
Eliminate duplicate work by easily importing key part and assembly data. From material grade and thickness to bend tolerances and processes, our next-generation software connects the systems that are integral to your core operations. Start with files from multiple sources, transforming them into accurate, production-ready parts with minimal effort.
Flawless data mapping
Eliminate duplicate work by easily importing key part and assembly data. From material grade and thickness to bend tolerances and processes, our next-generation software connects the systems that are integral to your core operations.
Advanced geometry repair
Quickly and easily repair broken, incomplete, and duplicate geometry using automated repair tools during import. For customers with advanced artwork, the SigmaNEST Filter module smooths digitized or scanned artwork using cutting-edge curve fitting and entity reduction techniques.
