About this 1d cutting optimizer

CutList Optimizer is an application targeted for panel cutting optimization. It generates optimized cutting patterns based on the available stock sheets by nesting the required parts. Online Web App: www.cutlistoptimizer.com Maximize productivity by reducing costs on sheets made of wood, metal, glass and other industrial materials. CutList Optimizer supports imperial feet and inches, metric. About this 1d cutting optimizer. This cut length calculator is designed to solve problems of cutting linear or length stock material as timber, beams, bars, paper rolls or pipes into pieces of specified lengths with minimal material waste, named as cutting stock problem.

This cut length calculator is designed to solve problems of cutting linear or length stock material as timber, beams, bars, paper rolls or pipes into pieces of specified lengths with minimal material waste, named as cutting stock problem. In generally, it's kind of length cutting optimization software, in other words, it's cut length optimizer or linear cut calculator.

For simple problems, finding optimal solution is not a big deal, but when you need to cut material to bigger number of parts or you demand more parts with different lengths, things are going to be more complicated. Basic and the most common length optimization algorithms, like 'First Fit' or 'Best Fit', are not a good choice. Here begins the strength of our linear cutting list calculator.

This length optimizer is very popular in carpentry. It can be used as powerful lumber cut calculator which produces optimal solutions how to cut lumber or timber with minimal waste.

As you can see, this linear cutting list calculator do not require any Excel add-ons or plugins. If you would like to see your cutting plan history at one place, try one of our Plans.

Free online panel cut optimizer allows you to create, store and modify 2D cutting projects from any computer or tablet connected to Internet. You don’t need to install anything on your computer, and you can use any operating systems or web browser to access and run the cutting optimization.

The online panel cut optimizer is web-application that runs on a dedicated server and provides high-performance calculation powered by Optimalon’s cutting optimization library CutGLib.

Optimization uses the guillotine cutting method when all cuts are done from one side of a panel completely to another side. Some cutting machines require simple cutting operation with only one sheet rotation; other machines are more sophisticated and can cut complex layouts. Online cut optimizer takes these restrictions in account during the optimization. There are five levels of the cutting complexity: 2 (XY), 3 (Two-Stage XY), 4 (XYZ), 5 (XYZW) and 6 (Standard).

All your cutting projects stored internally on the server’s database, so you can access them from anywhere in the world where you have an Internet connection.

Free online panel cut optimizer generates the graphical images of the cutting layouts that you can save to your local computer. You can zoom-in and zoom-out to get a more beneficial view.

Premium users have abilities to import, export panels and parts to Excel spreadsheets; generate the detailed report in Excel format and export graphical layouts as AutoCAD DXF file.
Also, Premium users can export cutting instructions to Pattern Exchange (PTX) format suitable for some CNC saw machines.

Each cutting project consists of three parts:

Cutting optimization settings, such as units, type of cuts, trim sizes, saw blade thickness / kerf, etc.
List of cutting panels defined by width, length and their count.
List of rectangular parts that you need to cut from the panels. Each part defined by width, length, count of parts.
