Overview

Tonest Software

ToNest is an intelligent nesting assistant developed for fabricators, estimators, and designers working with sheet metal, pipes, and structural sections. It transforms raw Excel data into optimized 3D nesting studies, saving significant time while reducing material waste. Fully integrated with Autodesk tools like Inventor Nesting Utility, ToNest supports both 2D nesting and 1D bar/pipe nesting, making it the ideal solution for estimating material utilization across projects of all sizes.

ToNest dramatically improved our material planning process. What used to take hours now takes just minutes, and the accuracy of the nesting has significantly reduced our scrap rates.

Key Features

Offers tools to select from a wide variety of plate shapes and import lists containing dimensions (length, width, thickness), material types, and quantities for accurate and optimized nesting.

Supports nesting for hot-rolled sections, pipes and rods, allowing users to import lists with section length and quantities to streamline the nesting process.

ToNest is designed to work seamlessly with Excel sheets exported from various software platforms, ensuring compatibility and reducing manual effort.

By automating and optimizing the nesting process, ToNest helps users maximize material usage, minimize waste, and save valuable time, making it an essential tool for steel structure projects and manufacturing workflows.
