If you’re spending more than a few hundred a week on fabric, you ought to look at good autonesting.

In some industries operators might spend an hour or so tweaking each nest to save a bit of fabric. With autonesting, this is unlikely to take more than a minute or two as a background task on a computer. If you’re spending more than a few hundred a week on fabric, you ought to look at good autonesting.

Time Saving

10 times faster than other software we have used, it can return a valid nest in under 10 seconds on queues with hundreds of patterns.

Waste Reduction

Give it a minute to try alternatives, and you can expect an even greater waste reduction.

Data Saving

Unlike many nesting programs, Autonest+ does not change the data structure of patterns so the integrity of splines and curves is preserved.

The gold standard in autonesting

We all know that time is money but in the technical textiles field, waste fabric is as just as expensive as time… sometimes more expensive. Good autonesting should be fast, efficient and easy to use to the point where you don’t have to ask what it costs because good autonesting software pays for itself in a few weeks.

Tangent’s built-in Autonest+ has an unbeatable combination of speed, fabric savings and features at a very cost-effective price.

Features and Benefits of Autonest+

Aeronaut’s Tangent software is the easiest to use, most flexible and powerful cutter control you can buy. It’s got all the tools you need for importing and nesting patterns as well as revolutionary machine vision systems to trace, digitise, autonest and pattern match.

Advanced autonesting options
with NestFab

NestFab has the full range of nesting features that customers have asked for including nesting within and across frames, batching nest queues, nesting into closed irregular shapes, fault avoidance, time and efficiency based nesting etc.

See advanced nesting with NestFab in action below.

We’ve worked with Aeronaut for over 24 years and have seen our capabilities grow alongside that time. We started with a single 20m x 4m plotting table, then added a second table as demand increased.
