Preparing an order
Parts are imported from DXF files. A number of properties are specified
for each part: material, thickness, quantity and drawing number.
All these properties can be modified after importing.
An order can contain parts of various thicknesses and materials -
the software will automatically sort parts into nesting groups.
The Astra S-Nesting can be run from command line,
import data automatically, generate the cutting layout of the order and export
the results.

True shape nesting
Quick automatic true shape nesting allows the software to perform calculations
with a high material usage ratio. If necessary, layouts can be
edited manually. A number of tools are available for this purpose:
you can move parts in set increments, to the nearest limit stop and
freely move them with your mouse; rotate parts, set part edges in parallel;
scale layouts; undo and redo commands and much more.

(for laser cutter, plasma cutter etc.), customize postprocessor and output NC-data in ISO (G-codes)
and ESSI formats for CNC cutting machines.
