FastNesting
Optimization for Rhino
Move from Rhino 3D furniture models to optimized panel layouts, cut lists, labels, machining drawings, and PDF/Excel reports. Designed for workshops using melamine, plywood, MDF, and other sheet materials.
What's New
Latest improvements and updates
Version 1.1.4 May 10, 2026
Edgeband presets can use 0 mm (rigid and flexible) so you keep BOM and totals without shrinking finished nest sizes. Machining is easier to read with Side A / Side B and X-ray modes; mirrored parts no longer mirror the wrong 2D. Pro users can optionally add piece-number dots on source 3D solids from Settings after nesting. Overall nesting, drawing, and part-list workflows are smoother with fewer geometry surprises.
Version 1.1.3 Apr 28, 2026
Improves nesting consistency in demanding layouts, adds stronger 2D machining drawing parity between Rhino and PDF, refines report regeneration, improves macOS readability, and grants eligible users a fresh 10 calendar day PRO trial.
Version 1.1.2 Feb 22, 2026
Settings now centralize panel parameters and units—no need to set them every time you launch. New features: panel size per material (PRO), cut ruler at the bottom of each panel, estimated weight in reports (PRO), and roughing margin per piece (PRO). New commands: Settings_FastNesting and Clean_FastNesting. Improvements: clearer UI in Settings and Panel Parameters, better report organization, and improved nesting algorithm with the option Veneer match by Group (prioritizes keeping parts from the same assembly close together).
