Automatic DXF Processing
DXNest automatically reads and validates DXF files, removing manual prep work from the workflow.
DXNest PanelBuilder Features
From fabrication to automation – we do it all
DXNest automatically reads and validates DXF files, removing manual prep work from the workflow.
Generates precise panel geometry from drawings or parameters, ready for fabrication.
Optimizes part layouts on sheets to minimize scrap and improve material utilization.
Creates ready-to-run CNC programs for fabrication lines in a few clicks.
Works with multiple sheet sizes and available stock, following real production constraints.
Automatically builds detailed BOMs for panels, hardware, and materials.
Handles thousands of parts with parallel processing and smart task distribution.
Generates packing slips, labels, PDFs, Excel reports, and production summaries automatically.
Transform days of repetitive engineering work into minutes of full automation
Traditional workflows with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Excel, and separate nesting/CNC software require hours of manual work for each set of panels. Engineers repeat the same steps: updating geometry, unfolding models, cleaning DXF files, recalculating BOMs, performing nesting, preparing CNC, and fixing errors.
DXNest automates this entire pipeline. Once all models or DXFs are generated, the system performs BOM processing, sheet optimization, nesting and CNC generation for the entire project in minutes.
DXNest instantly performs BOM, sheet optimization, nesting and CNC code generation for small batches.
Medium façade projects processed automatically from DXF to CNC with no manual work.
Large-scale fabrication workflow reduced from a full week to minutes with full repeatability.

Frequently Asked Questions
DXNest is a specialized CAD/CAM solution for sheet-metal and façade fabrication. Here are answers to the most common questions about how it works and how it can be integrated into your workflow
DXNest is a CAD/CAM software system that automates the entire preparation process for sheet-metal and façade production. It reads parts from DXF drawings and Excel files, performs nesting on available sheet sizes, generates DXF layouts, CNC programs, Bills of Materials, packing slips, and material reports
DXNest is intended for façade engineering companies, metal fabrication shops, and manufacturers that work with aluminum or steel panels, cladding systems, and other sheet-metal components. It is especially useful when you have many similar parts and need to prepare nesting and CNC files quickly and accurately
You can use DXF drawings with panel contours and an Excel spreadsheet with project parameters, material types, thicknesses, quantities, and sheet sizes. DXNest automatically detects closed contours, builds a parts list, and prepares optimized nesting layouts based on the available materials
DXNest generates nested DXF layouts, CNC programs for cutting machines, Bills of Materials, packing slips, and detailed material usage reports in Excel and PDF formats. These documents can be used directly in production and for project documentation
Yes. You can define multiple sheet formats and their available quantities. DXNest will distribute parts between them to minimize waste. Material type and thickness are taken into account, so parts are always placed on the correct sheet
Yes. DXNest can be adapted to your specific fabrication standards, CNC formats, and reporting templates. We can help integrate the software into your current CAD and production workflow
You can contact us using the form below or send an email to contact@dxnest.io. We will schedule an online demonstration and discuss how DXNest can be applied to your current projects
If you work with sheet-metal panels, façade systems, or other standard production and want to reduce preparation time and material waste, DXNest can become a core part of your workflow. Send us your typical project example, and we will show how it can be processed in DXNest – from DXF drawings to nested layouts, CNC programs, and documentation
