Welcome to the on-line help system for the RhinoCAM NEST module included with your MecSoft CAM software. Nesting refers to the process of positioning and fitting 2D or 3D part shapes within flat raw material for the purpose of minimizing material scrap and to achieving efficient machining. In order to minimize the amount of scrap produced by this process, companies use nesting software. For purposes of brevity, RhinoCAM will be referred to as NEST in all subsequent references. Also, Rhino refers to both Rhinoceros 7 or Rhino 8.
Nesting is an add-on module for RhinoCAM that can nest parts by considering either their true shape or a rectangular form around each part shape. This product offers a simple and easy to use wizard driven interface to nest parts in preparation for CAM programming with RhinoCAM.
