Material utilization is a price driver
Two parts with the same cut length can have different cost if one nests poorly or forces a larger sheet format.
True-shape nesting and remnant handling make material cost visible before production starts.
Cutting time is not just length
Pierces, inner contours, lead-ins, quality level and gas choice also affect laser time. The quote should separate these drivers.
Trace nesting into the calculation
The estimator should see sheet format, utilization, scrap factor and any remnant assumptions behind the material line.

Use one of your laser-cut parts and we will show how nesting affects the quote.
