Résumé : |
For various reasons, many aerospace and automotive manufacturing companies have not improved on their nesting efficiency much over the last few years. Given recent price rises in sheet metal and composite materials, this is starting to bite. Composite materials are already expensive, and recent double-digit price increases by a major composite manufacturer have cut even further into margins. Those companies that employ a more efficient nesting method will gain considerably over their competitors, not only in the amount of material saved but also in the time taken to create the nests. So what can manufacturing companies do to improve their material utilisation ? |
