Cutting Optimization Software for a More Efficient Workshop
Turn a parts list into a cutting plan you can use. Manage customer orders, optimize sheet layouts, compare alternatives and guide saw operators with a visual cutting sequence.
Plan every job in the Workstation, make better use of each sheet and keep reusable material remnants for the next order.
Your Workstation for Cutting Orders and Material Optimization
From customer details to the final cut: a connected workflow for furniture makers, cabinet shops and sheet cutting workshops.
Workstation: Configure and Run Cutting Optimization
Start with a cutting order and open its cutting workspace. Choose materials and stock sheets, set saw or CNC parameters and run optimization, with the job’s setup and saved results together.
Cutting Orders and Customer Information
Keep customer information, parts, materials, due dates, priorities and notes in one cutting order. Import parts from CSV or enter them manually, then return to the job’s saved optimization history.
Order Status Updates from Draft to Completion
Update each order as it moves through Draft, Validating, Optimizing, Ready for production and Completed. Check change history and use the Workstation overview to spot upcoming deadlines and jobs that need attention.
Catalogs of Materials, Sheets and Remnants
Organize material codes, thicknesses, standard sheet sizes and saved offcuts in reusable catalogs. Select materials and available stock for each order without entering the same dimensions again.
Visual Cutting Layouts for Every Sheet
Inspect 2D sheet layouts with labeled parts, dimensions and remaining areas. Zoom in to check placement and understand how the material will be used before exporting the cutting plan.
Multiple Cutting Layout Options
Generate alternative cutting layouts and keep successful runs with the order. Compare material utilization, waste and sheets used, then choose the option that best fits the job.
Step-by-Step Cutting Guidance for the Operator
For layouts with a saw cutting plan, play the visual sequence or move through it one cut at a time. See the next cut, fence setting and pieces released at each step to guide the operator through the sheet.
Print / PDF for Cutting Sequence Plans
Give the saw operator a paper or PDF step list from a saved cutting plan. Choose the current sheet or all sheets, include optional step sketches, and review fence settings, parts and reusable offcuts. Print / PDF works in your browser without using a daily optimization request.
Read guidePricing and Services
Create price lists for the cutting services you sell. Combine charges by cut length, perimeter, cut, area, part or machine time, with rates by material and thickness. Review a saved plan's price breakdown and create fixed quotes to print or save as PDF.
Read guidePart Labels
Design reusable labels with part codes, dimensions, materials, edging and grain diagrams, QR codes and Code 128 barcodes. Print selected physical copies from a saved cutting plan on sheet or roll stock, or save as PDF. Save templates and calibrate alignment for your printer.
Read guideSave Material Remnants for the Next Job
Identify reusable remnants in saw cutting plans and save their material, dimensions and quantities to your catalog. Select those offcuts as stock for future orders to use more of the material you already have.
DXF Pre-Validator
Upload your DXF file — receive an instant, part-by-part report of every machining violation. Protect your panels and your schedule.
Lightning-Fast Optimization
Optimize hundreds of rectangular parts across mixed-size stock sheets. Generate alternatives and compare results before choosing a plan.
Saw & CNC Modes
Guillotine cuts for panel saws or full nested optimization for CNC routers. Choose the mode that fits your production line.
Multi-Material Batching
Mix plywood, MDF, solid wood — or any sheet good — in a single request. Each material is optimized against its own stock plates.
5 Export Formats
PDF cutting plans, DXF for CNC, SVG for design tools, CSV for ERP, and PTX for HOLZMA / HOMAG panel saws — delivered as download links.
Fully Configurable
Set blade kerf, edge trim, grain direction, rotation and performance mode in the workspace or API. Save optimization presets for repeat jobs.
