CNC nesting software for stairs
Automatic nesting built for stair parts. Take CNC files straight from the stair design software you already use, nest the parts onto your chosen board and sheet sizes, and send them to the machine ready to cut - better yield, less manual work, faster machining.
HOW IT WORKS
From your stair software to your CNC
-
Import the job
Take CAM files directly from Staircon, StairBiz or virtually any other stair design system.
-
Post-process automatically
Each part is converted and prepared for auto nesting, your machining rules and output for your CNC.
-
Nest onto your boards
Parts are optimised onto your chosen board and sheet sizes, with the utilisation of every sheet visible before you cut.
-
Send to production
Nested sheets go through to production ready for machining.
WHY STAIRLABS
Nesting software made for stair manufacturers
-
Works with your existing software – take CAM files directly from Staircon, StairBiz or virtually any other stair design system.
-
Built for stair parts – treads, winders and the rest of the staircase are nested job by job onto the board and sheet sizes you actually use.
-
Better yield, faster machining – automatic nesting gets more from every sheet and takes the manual work out of preparing parts for the CNC.
-
Connected to production – batch compatible jobs together in production management and send them through to nesting in one step.
BETTER TOGETHER
Part of one connected workflow
Job data flows from the online staircase designer through nesting to production, keeping the whole process connected from sale to manufacture.
Online Staircase Designer
Give your customers the ability to design, price and buy their staircase directly from your website. Your sales team can use the same system to create quotes, make changes and push confirmed orders into production.

FAQ
Common questions about stair nesting software
Which stair design software does it work with?
Staircon, StairBiz and virtually any other stair design system that outputs CAM or CNC files.
Do we need to change our stair design software?
No. Keep designing in the software you already use - the nesting takes its output and carries on from there.
Does it handle post-processing for our CNC?
Yes. Each part is converted and prepared for auto nesting, your machining rules and the output your CNC needs.
Can we set our own board and sheet sizes?
Yes. Parts are nested onto the board and sheet sizes you choose.
Is the nesting automatic?
Yes. Parts are auto nested and optimised onto your boards, then sent to production ready for machining. You can see the utilisation of each sheet before it is cut.
Is it only for stair manufacturers?
StairLabs builds software for the staircase industry, so the nesting is designed around stair parts and stair workflows rather than generic sheet cutting.
