Discover Almacam’s nesting power with our new trial
In sheet metal subcontracting, nesting is not a secondary feature. It is one of the fastest levers for protecting margins. Any improvement in material yield, even a small one, has a direct impact on your bottom line: lower cost per part, less scrap, fewer remnants to manage and more parts produced from the same sheets.
As a complete all-in-one CAD/CAM suite, Almacam comes with the most efficient nesting software on the market. And we’re ready to prove it. That’s why we’re launching a new online platform to try out our nesting algorithms with your own parts, without installing anything.
Try Almacam nesting for free: measure real material yield in minutes
The Almacam nesting trial is a cloud-based demo environment that lets you run our 2D nesting engine with your own data. It is designed for quick, realistic comparisons so you can notice the high performance of the Almacam’s algorithms.
Keep in mind, this trial platform does not explore the full Almacam’s capabilities. It is only focused on the nesting engine. Our complete software suite offers many additional industrial CAM features and a different interface.
Why nesting software matters for sheet metal subcontractors
Subcontractors live on tight margins and constant quoting pressure. Nesting performance affects:
- material yield and scrap rate,
- the actual cost of each order,
- how competitive your quotes remain over time.
Indeed, material yield refers to the proportion of the sheet that is actually used to produce parts compared with the sheet’s total area. The higher it is, the less material you consume to manufacture the same number of parts. Conversely, a low yield generates more scrap, meaning more losses and a higher material cost on each job.
Going beyond nesting
Almacam is built as a complete production platform. Beyond what you test in this free trial, our goal is to deliver world-class nesting performance and all the surrounding capabilities that make nesting profitable in real life: machine and robot programming, NC code generation, upstream quotation, and production planning across your machines.

What you can test during the trial
The trial focuses on automatic true-shape 2D nesting. In a few steps, you can :
- import your 2D parts in various formats,
- automatically prepare parts,
- choose how fast you want your nesting results,
- directly see the nesting results
This is a practical way to answer a simple question with hard data: “How much better can my material utilization be with Almacam?”
