Sheet yield calculator

About the sheet yield calculator

See how many parts fit on a 3,000 × 1,500 or 1,500 × 1,000 mm sheet, how many sheets a job needs and how much offcut is left.

How it works

Parts are laid out in rows with the cutting gap between them, in both orientations; the better layout is shown. For mixed or odd-shaped parts the Nesting Studio packs true shapes.

Questions

What sheet sizes do you cut?

Our tables take sheets up to 3,000 × 1,500 mm; we also stock 2,500 × 1,250 and 2,000 × 1,000 mm sheets.

Does a better nest make the job cheaper?

Yes. On tight nests we charge the sheet area used when that is lower than the part weight.
