A build-planning system for metal additive manufacturing that decides nesting and machine scheduling in one solve, so a bureau can quote a defensible cost, date, and energy figure per part instead of discovering the real cost after the plate comes out.
Last verified 15 Sept 2026 · Updated 23 Sept 2026 · Metadata v1
Problem
Metal powder-bed service bureaus and captive AM cells running 3–20 machines across two or three alloys, quoting one-off and sub-100-unit industrial parts, where nesting lives in the machine vendor's preparation software, scheduling lives in a whiteboard or spreadsheet, and cost per part is reverse-engineered after the fact.
Outcome
A design-complete foundation in the active pipeline — engineering scaffold planned to complete this month.

About this foundation
Production economics for additive manufacturing. Vendor build preparation optimises one plate in isolation and MES scheduling treats a build as an opaque job of unknown duration. Nestwright treats "which parts share a plate" and "which plate runs on which machine when" as a single multi-objective decision over cost, delivery date, and energy per part — which is the integrated optimisation problem the source paper argues is being wrongly decomposed.
