From your product
to CNC machining.
Nesting CNC links the layout of furniture parts on the panel with their machining. Using a cabinet as an example, you can see the software preparation and the operator’s work in custom furniture production.

Original SCM software display.
It is easier to imagine the next step.
The visual overview helps you understand the program flow before execution. Machining preparation still includes the correct tools, clamping and checking the settings.
The recordings show individual machines or software add-ons. We will check the correct configuration for your product. YouTube loads only after your confirmation when viewing.
01 / FROM DRAWING TO MACHINED PARTS
One cabinet.
Four clear steps.
Follow the same five elements: from the product to the layout on the panel and CNC machining. Then see what changes with a wider cabinet.
- A1 · A2 two side panels
- B1 · B2 top and bottom
- C1 one shelf
01 / PRODUCT
We divide the cabinet into parts.
For the example, we take an open cabinet with one shelf. From the drawing we obtain five parts, their dimensions, material and required machining operations. This tells the program which pieces we are preparing.
The person defines the product
Selects the dimensions, material, panel thickness and joint construction.
Preparation data
A list of parts with geometry and machining operations. We will check whether transfer from your design software is suitable.
Result: a prepared list of five parts.
- A1 · A2 two side panels
- B1 · B2 top and bottom
- C1 one shelf
02 / SOFTWARE PREPARATION
We arrange the same parts on the panel.
Nesting means arranging parts on the raw panel. CAD/CAM preparation connects geometry with machining, and the nesting module helps prepare the layout and CNC program.
The program helps prepare
The layout of parts and the milling and drilling paths for the appropriately equipped machine.
The preparer checks
Material, grain direction, clearances, tools and clamping. Before execution, they check the result of the software preparation.
Result: a verified CNC program for the selected board.
- A1 · A2 two side panels
- B1 · B2 top and bottom
- C1 one shelf
03 / WORK ON THE MACHINE
The CNC machines the board according to the program.
The operator selects a prepared program and sets up the machine. The CNC then cuts the elements according to that program and carries out the planned machining operations enabled by its configuration.
The operator prepares and oversees
The board, tools and vacuum clamping are checked according to the prescribed procedure, and the process is monitored.
The machine carries out the machining
After the approved program, it machines the marked parts. Once it is safely finished, the operator takes over and inspects the elements.
Result: machined elements for the next operations, not an assembled cabinet.
- A1 · A2 two side panels
- B1 · B2 top and bottom
- C1 one shelf
04 / NEXT ORDER
Wider cabinet, updated preparation.
The customer wants a width of 800 instead of 600 mm. In this case the side panels A1 and A2 remain the same, while the top and bottom panels and the shelf are extended. Therefore the layout on the board also changes.
We use the existing preparation
Saved data and procedures are the starting point. We update the dimensions in the design or CAD/CAM program, depending on the solution used.
We check again before machining
The geometry and joints, layout, machining operations and machine conditions. The changed product needs an appropriate new CNC program.
Result: a new, verified preparation without repeating every step from the beginning.
A simplified example without doors, back panel or fittings. Dimensions are illustrative, sketches are not to scale. Depending on the product, after CNC machining there follow edge banding, other necessary operations and assembly. We define software modules, data transfer and machine compatibility for the specific configuration.

to actual machining.
With the machine shown, it is easier to connect the individual stages: material preparation, program execution and taking over the machined elements. For the specific product, we also check the machining operations, tools and clamping.
02 / WORK ORGANISATION
Everyone learns what
they need for their work.
Machining preparation
Product, geometry, tools and program. The level of complexity depends on your products.
Machine operation
Material preparation, safe working and execution of the prepared program.
Equipment oversight
With the right configuration, additional solutions allow monitoring of operation and maintenance tasks.
Clearly divided tasks and repeatable procedures make it easier to train a new colleague. The scope of training is defined for the specific equipment and the roles in your team.
03 / SELECTED EQUIPMENT
The right machine for the way you work.
The families morbidelli x100 and x200 are the starting point for discussing nesting. The execution is determined by the element sizes, machining operations, loading organisation and order volume.
For the first discussion, a product example, material and approximate quantities are enough.
Discussion about nestingQUESTIONS FROM THE WORKSHOP
What is worth clarifying?
Do I need a person just for programming?
Preparing a new product and working with a prepared program are different tasks. The organisation required depends on the variety of products, order volume and your existing know-how.
Can I use an existing furniture program?
We check export formats, the link to machining preparation and the appropriate transfer for the selected machine. The link must preserve the data you need during machining.
How do we show time savings?
On the same representative product, we compare data preparation, setup, machining and repeats. This is how we assess the effect in your actual process.
Does the system warn about maintenance?
Selected digital solutions allow monitoring of operation and planning and tracking of maintenance tasks. The scope depends on the equipment, modules and connectivity.
MORE ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY
morbidelli x100 · what do the data mean?
morbidelli x100 is a CNC nesting centre: we arrange the elements on the board, then carry out the planned milling and drilling. The choice of work table, vacuum clamping and handling of boards is linked to the element sizes and the volume of work.
| Data | Available versions / maximum value |
|---|---|
| Working area X × Y | 2.556 × 1.296; 3.756 × 1.596; 3.756 × 1.896; 3.156 × 2.216 or 4.356 × 2.216 mm |
| Board passage along the Z axis | 150 mm |
| Milling spindle power, 3-/4-axis version | up to 15 kW |
| Spindle speed | up to 24,000 rpm |
| Tool changer | up to 31 positions |
| Vector speed X–Y, PRO-SPACE version | 70 m/min |
Values marked “up to” indicate available equipment, not the standard equipment of every machine. Z-axis travel is not the automatically permitted thickness for all operations, and axis feed speed is not the same as the cutting speed for your product.
What does the software add?
- Product data: dimensions, material, elements and related operations from the design program or prepared geometry.
- Maestro lab: CAD/CAM preparation of geometry and machining; a dedicated nesting module supports arranging elements on the panel.
- Maestro active: operator work with a prepared program on the appropriate machine.
- Simulation and connections: we check accessories, export formats, licences and compatibility with a specific machine together.
Reusable preparation makes it easier to change dimensions on a related product. Tools, clamping, material and the program result still need to be checked.
