Cutting Optimization Pro is a computer
program used for obtaining optimal cutting layouts for one (1D) and two
(2D) dimensional pieces. The software also lets you to define and handle
complex products, such as table, desk, cupboard, locker, book shelf
...
Cutting Optimization Pro can be used
for cutting rectangular sheets made of glass, wood, woodworking, metal,
furniture, or any other
material used by industrial applications.
Cutting Optimization Pro can also be
used for cutting linear pieces such as bars, pipes, tubes, steel bars, metal
profiles, extrusions, tubes, lineal wood boards, etc
and other linear materials.
Version
5 of
the program is in open beta test now !
It contains: trim margins, priorities,
history, better optimization, rolls cutting, handling defects of the
materials, UNICODE support, redesigned interface etc.
If you are interested in testing version 5
please send us an email.
1D and 2D optimization in
the same program - you may use the program for both 2D and 1D
optimization.
Guillotine optimization - The cuttings are performed from one side to
the other of the material. This feature is very useful for glass, wood,
thermopan, ...
Non-guillotine (nested) optimization - The cutting machine can follow
the shape of the material. In this case you need to have a complex
machine based on laser or flame blade.
Multi-stage guillotine - all cuts in a stage are
perpendicular to the cuts on the previous stage. The user may specify
the number of stages and the direction of cuts for the first stage.
Any number of pieces in the
REPOSITORY and DEMAND - virtually no limit for the number of pieces
that you want to optimize.
Any measurement metric- The
way in which you introduce the data is a general one. You don't have to
specify a metric. Just choose a metric in your mind and enter all data
using that metric only.
Adjustable cutting blade
thickness- For glass cutting with diamond the cutting blade
width is 0, but for wood, metal handling you need a saw blade with a
greater width.
Adjustable optimization
level- One may specify how many layouts to be generated
before the solution is outputted. If you don't have too much time and
you don't have a good computer you may set the Optimization Level to a low level. This feature helps you to run
your program on any kind of computer (from 486 to the best processors
available today).
Maximal cut
length limit - You may specify how long a cut can be. This is useful
when you perform the cuttings manually.
Adjustable
useful waste - all wastes smaller than this size are garbage (will
not be added to repository).
Adjustable
limit for breakable parts - No waste will have a size lower than
this parameter and no 2 parallel cuttings will be closer than this. It
is used in order to avoid the breaking of too small material. Useful in
glass industry.
Reduces panel waste and costs - By
using the latest achievements in the field of Artificial Intelligence
you may obtain reduce the waste by 15%.
Grain direction control - useful for
wood cutting optimisation. A parameter let the user to specify if the
piece can be rotated or it should be kept fixed.
Automatic offcuts handling - the
useful waste is automatically added to the Repository of materials.
Vertical printing of the labels and edge
bands - this will optimise and simplify your layout.
Graphical display
black-white or colourful images and text mode of the obtained results
- the results are displayed as images (black and white or colourful) or
as text-tables.
Save images automatically - all the
obtained 2D sheets can be saved as bmp images with 1 click. The programs
automatically appends a number to an image.
Grouping similar layouts - this will
reduce the number of printed sheets of paper. The number of repetitions
for each sheet will be displayed.
Printing the obtained
layouts - on any printer.
Printing multiple layouts
on the same page - You may print 1, 2, 4 or 6 layouts on the same
sheet of paper.
Printing the REPOSITORY and
the DEMAND of the customer - you may print the pieces that you want
to optimize.
The cuttings are shown in text
format in order to use them with a CNC machine.
Edge banding handling - the quantity
and the type of material attached to the edges of the wood sheets is
manipulated by the program.
Computes / Prints the total cutting length.
Displays diagrams - a table which
contain the pieces cut for each sheet.
Possibility to
define complex products such as table, desk, cupboard, locker, book
shelf ...
Possibility to
define types of materials (glass, wood, band) - for each material
the user has a special table where it can introduce more information
about the material.
Automatic
tool for computing the size of the pieces based on the external sizes of
the product.
Statistics related to the
current cut / layout- At the end of the optimisation process
you will have access to the: number of cuttings, cuttings definition
(starting and ending point), number of waste rectangles, the waste
rectangles (the coordinates of the top-left and bottom-right corners),
number of utilized pieces, the placement of the utilized pieces, used
surface, ...
Saves/loads
results - All results can saved in txt files and loaded later.
Generates and prints adhesive labels
-
Load data from *.dbt
(specific files), *.2d (Real Cut 2D files), *.xls (Excel files), *.xml (XML files),
*.csv (comma separated)
and *.1d (Real Cut 1D
files).
Automatically computing of
the order price -
The REPOSITORY and the DEMAND can be sorted - by using various criteria:
Length, Width, Quantity, Type, Rotation, Labels
Maximises
productivity,
saves time and money ....
Data can be exported
into very popular formats: Word, Excel, HTML, CSV (comma separated) and XML files.
All panels and table's
columns are resizable - You may customize the workspace. The new positions are automatically stored.
Very fast running time - Solutions are obtained within seconds.
Pieces to be optimized are introduced
in DEMAND. Add data by pressing the
+
button at the top part of tables.
Pieces to cut from (the sheets) are introduced in
REPOSITORY. The REPOSITORY is automatically handled. In the case of 1D optimization (pipes,
bars, linear pieces) only one value (either Length or Width)
must be introduced. The other field must be left empty or set to 0.
Press the button Start. At the
end of cutting optimisation the solution will be printed in graphic and text mode. If you are not satisfied with the
current solution (optimisation) you may press Start again. You may also increase
the Optimization level from menu Settings | Algorithm.
If you are satisfied with the current
solution you may print and save it. Then press Accept. Utilized pieces will be removed and the
useful one will be added tot the REPOSITORY.
