Production Preparation & Automation Services

DXNest provides specialized automation services for the production-preparation stage of sheet-metal and façade fabrication.

We help you replace manual, error-prone routines with a streamlined digital workflow based on DXNest and custom tools built specifically for your plant.

How We Work With You

1. Discovery meeting & workflow analysis

We start with an in-depth meeting to understand how your production works today:

  • review existing drawings, DXF files, BOMs and CNC programs

    • map your current pre-production workflow – from order intake to nesting and CNC

    • identify bottlenecks, repetitive manual tasks and sources of scrap or errors

  • This stage gives us a clear picture of what needs to be automated and which KPIs (time, waste, accuracy) we should improve.

2. Custom solution design for your factory

Based on the collected data, we design an automation solution that fits your production, not the other way around:

  • configuration of DXNest for your materials, sheet formats, panel types and CNC machines
  • definition of part types, naming conventions and special production rules
    • setup of nesting strategies, label formats, packing slips and BOM structure for your projects

All settings are created specifically for your company, so engineers and operators can work in a familiar logic while the software handles the routine.

3. Client-specific feature development

If standard functionality is not enough, we can extend DXNest with custom features tailored to your needs, for example:

  • additional import/export formats or integration with your ERP/MES system
  • custom calculations, reports or approval workflows
  • special nesting or CNC logic for non-standard parts and machining operations

This allows you to keep a single integrated system while covering even very unique production requirements.

4. Implementation, training & ongoing optimization

After development and configuration we:

  • install and test the solution on real projects
  • train engineers, programmers and operators to use the new tools
  • collect feedback from your team and fine-tune settings as production grows

We stay in contact after go-live to help you further optimize nesting, CNC programs, documentation and overall pre-production automation.

Why Work With Us?

Focused on pre-production automation – from DXF and panel lists to nesting, CNC, labels and BOM.

Tailored to your factory – we configure and extend the system for your machines, materials and workflows.

Faster, more reliable preparation – less manual data entry, fewer mistakes, better material utilization and shorter lead times.
