Hello
By pure chance, I was wondering if someone would not have made a program or something like this to allow to simulate a storage of solidworks parts.
In order to save as much space as possible for transport. Like, we have a folder with all our parts, we define a box size and he offers us several or the best position...
Does it exist?
Thank you
Hello
I don't think it exists, but I'll check if a macro has not been published.
Thank you
I couldn't find anything directly related to SolidWorks!
Maybe see this software that is available in a trial version:

It could be interesting to develop, but it's already very expensive and takes time for 2D, so for 3D, it must be a real headache!
Thank you.
Yes, I can imagine, not to mention the means of protection and the shapes of the parts.
The link you offer me looks good, for a cargo already made of cardboard.
I understand the complexity of the program for sure but I told myself that sometimes a geek might have already done it ..:)
MErci qd same
Sorry, I would also have been interested in such a tool!
After that, you have to leave the question open for a few days to see if others know anything.
Hello
I do it by tinkering... I also do laser prog, so I make a DXF of one of the views and define the format of my sheet metal (size format of the body or pallet) then I launch an automatic nesting with several parameters.
Hello
I use the new Logopress3 module for nesting parts, and then on several levels if necessary.
A little link that goes well:)

Chances are that future updates will feature automatic calculation for different parts in 3D.
On the other hand for a macro integrated into SolidWorks (and free), I don't know about it :/
They made a game like that.... it's called Tetris^^
I admit that it would be super practical to have this little software
Edit: I didn't know that Logopress could do this... to see =)
Well thank you for all your answers if anyone ever finds this, let him issue it online ...
