PLUS 1D is a Bar Nesting (multing) optimization software, which helps reduce the waste in cutting any 1D (lineal) material like pipe, bar, angles, sections, flange, rod, tube, channel, frame, profiles, extrusions etc. It automatically generates the optimum cutting plans once the part list, and the available stock has been entered. It helps you save material by reducing the offcuts (drops) and reusing them. It has a simple user interface and you get the optimized result, with detailed reports at the click of a button.

There are optional Add-on modules for Miter parts (parts with angled cuts), Large parts with Joints and Bar Code Label generation and printing.
