nest(ing)
Explanation:
This could be just “nest,” as searching for “cnc nid” turned up pages for machining tools where “nid” is “nest” in English, and it seems that “nest(ing)” is actually a technical term in CAD/CAM. “Nid en cours” would then make sense, though I don’t know about the other two (nor whether I’m even on the right track or not) since I have zero knowledge about CAD/CAM.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Yes, thanks Ambrose - I eventually found a similar reference myself, and used "nest" in the translation, but with a note to the client asking for an explanation to confirm. I'll report back! NB I'm on vacation so may not be around all the time.
