This paper investigates the optimal nesting system for a board. A hybrid method is used to search the optimal solution for rectangular nesting problem. This method is composed of heuristic approach algorithm. An engineer's experience of board nesting in which a loss occurred to sheet because of various individual error and diffidence. So, item layout at resource sheet were evaluated in engineering algorithm logic in which specially designed was installed. The nesting system consists of Lisp and Visual Basic. The system was controlled by AutoCAD so as to best item batch path test.
