Zero,
Autonest must be (cecked) controlled by hand, it does´nt work very well.

Try Metalix cncKad (http://metalix-cad-cam.com/products.php?cat=9&id=16). It can work as add-in for SolidWorks...

I am using Alma act/cut for years. It imports dxf, step, iges etc. Fully autonesting, preparing nc code and reports. Direct link to Catia, SolidEdge, Siemens NX.

Hello all,

Don't know about free software but I can comment on what we use.

For years we used Sigma but now we use Lantek.
Lantek is very good and a lot cheaper than Sigma for us.
Lantek has add - on packages for the professional so it keeps the cost down for the specialised or home user. You only pay for what you need.

Paul.
