FROM YOUR INPUT TO SOMETHING USEFUL

Make it work for your project

01

List available boards

Enter material groups, actual usable lengths and the number of boards you have.

02

Add required pieces

Enter lengths and quantities, then the actual blade width and end allowance.

03

Inspect the arrangement

Review every bar and unplaced piece. Export the diagram and cutting list after checking units.

Before you begin

Is this the mathematically best arrangement?

No. It uses a bounded best-fit method to suggest a useful arrangement. Compare alternatives before committing expensive material.

How does it count blade width?

It reserves a full kerf after each piece unless the piece exactly reaches the remaining stock end. End allowance is removed once per board.

Can it nest plywood panels?

No. This tool plans one-dimensional lengths. Use separate material groups for different widths, thicknesses or grain requirements.
