Just lost a detailed report (token?)- now a short version!
Nesting fails when parts fit plus minus null on sheets. My parts should fit regarding to the measurements on a sheet multiple times. The nesting tool can't find a solution.
Options are:
Quantity multiplier: 0
Rotation: 4
Sheet margin: 0
Margin: 0
Tolerance: 0
If I modify the parts and make them slightly smaller then a nesting is done as expected. Did I miss something?

I can confirmed that nesting cannot be used for this use case. This is a limitation of the nesting algorithm (the no-fit polygon disintegrates in this case).
Nesting is mainly useful for large sheets with many small parts.
