Nesting Work Orders - Looking for Beta Users!

We've been laser-focused on developing new features for sheet metal fabricators. A critical and unique step in fab shops is the cutting step, where parts from different jobs and sales orders can be nested together and cut.

We aim to seamlessly integrate this nesting workflow into Fulcrum, making it easier to identify what needs to be nested across orders and jobs. This will streamline the creation of Work Orders for cutting, with better filtering by material, thickness, and due date—plus, even suggest additional parts to nest in a given work order.

After creating the work order, you can quickly export all .DXF files to nest the parts in your preferred nesting software. Once the nest is created, upload the setup sheet back to the work order in Fulcrum. Our AI then extracts key details—such as machine run time, part sizes, material, and repetitions. This allows us to automate material picks, remnant creation, and deliver precise material costing for job costing in Fulcrum.

We're looking for customers interested in joining the beta for this new feature - let your launch or account manager know if you're in!
