In order to control shape nesting, additional information has to be created for a part, which is used in the nesting design process. This information can be generated automatically or manually. In order for a part to be included in the Nesting program, the following must be done:

 

1.Setting the nesting contour. The contour may be set automatically at the moment of creating CAM technology, or, of the user so chooses, created by the user themselves.
2.Creating CAM technology for nesting process.

 

The following sections describe how to generate such information.
