Optional modules

PrimeNEST Add-On Modules

Bolt-on modules that extend PrimeNEST for the way your shop works. Buy them with the base package or add them later — they unlock in the software you already have installed.

Add-on

Structural Steel Workflow

Your laser doesn't have to be a flat-sheet-only machine. This module brings channel, tube, and angle onto the laser bed with the layout and fixturing rules that structural material actually needs.

  • Channel, square and round tube, and angle
  • Length-based layout that minimizes drop on each stick
  • Fixturing and orientation handled for bed cutting
  • Same job list and same interface as sheet nesting

Add-on

Auto-Load DXF

Stop clicking through import dialogs. Set a watched folder, and any DXF dropped into it imports into PrimeNEST automatically — whether it came from your CAD system, an engineer down the hall, or a customer email.

  • Watched folder monitored continuously
  • New DXF files import themselves, no dialogs
  • Works with CAD exports, network shares, and email saves
  • Keeps the operator on the nest instead of the file browser

Additional modules in development

We build add-ons based on what shops ask for. If there's a step in your process that PrimeNEST doesn't cover yet, tell us — it may already be on the list.

Not sure which add-ons you need?

Tell us what you cut and how the work reaches your shop. We'll tell you honestly which modules pay for themselves and which ones you can skip.
