Optimizer Cut List

This tool optimizes cut lists for stock material by computing efficient layouts that satisfy required piece quantities while minimizing waste. It supports multiple stock sizes and both simple and complex part sets. The algorithmic core combines nesting heuristics with optional exact methods to balance speed and plan quality.
Inputs include stock dimensions, part dimensions and quantities, kerf, and unit preferences; advanced options enable nesting mode, orientation constraints, and part priorities. Outputs provide stock allocations, a concrete cut plan, waste estimates, and yield metrics, with exports for BOM workflows.
The system supports batch planning, multi-stock scenarios, and performance analytics, enabling repeatable production planning for varied runs.
Typical users are wood shops, metal fabricators, and plastic suppliers seeking to maximize material utilization, reduce scrap, and accelerate quoting and production scheduling. Unique value lies in combining practical shop constraints (kerf, orientation, stock choice) with flexible nesting or guillotine strategies, plus actionable outputs suitable for procurement and shop-floor execution.
