What is new in OptiNest 3.05d

OptiNest 3.05d is a stable release of Boole & Partners’ advanced CNC nesting software, designed to minimize material waste with true‑shape nesting. It introduces refinements in performance, DXF import/export, small‑part management, and improved handling of bored parts and grain continuity for woodworking and cabinet manufacturing.

🔑 Key Features in OptiNest 3.05d

Nesting Algorithms

  • True‑Shape Nesting: Handles irregular parts (curves, polygons, holes) rather than just rectangles.
  • Advanced Algorithms: Based on Boole & Partners’ CalepiLib library, with parameters like calculation depth, smoothing factor, grouping, and propagation mode.
  • Grain Management: Ensures continuous grain flow across grouped parts (e.g., cabinet doors).

Workflow & Integration

  • DXF Import/Export: Supports outlines, inner openings, and toolings; outputs layered DXF files ready for CNC machining.
  • Panel Editor: Allows manual adjustments after automatic nesting.
  • PolyBoard Integration: Seamless link with PolyBoard cabinet design software for end‑to‑end design‑to‑manufacture workflows.

Manufacturing Support

  • Small Part Management: Tracks and reuses off‑cuts and cut‑outs for smaller parts.
  • Bored Parts & Holes: Treats drilled components as specific tooling types.
  • Rotation & Reversal Options: Define permitted part movements for optimal fit.
  • Propagation Mode: Efficient placement of repeated parts across large panels.
