Box Packaging

[Mohmed]

Hi All,
I am looking for any option in any of the Catia module for -
For a given part and box, what is optimum way of packaging and How many parts that can be boxed.

TIA

There is nothing in CATIA that will automatically optimize fitting parts into a box.

I believe what you're looking for is sometimes called "nesting."

I've used a software package called "RAYDAN" that optimally nested CATIA 2D profiles onto a sheet for NC cutting. Not sure if that still exists, or if it works in 3D.
