Pre-Cut Optimizer is a calculation program for cutting optimization of standard profiles and other bar materials, developed by rigotech from Germany. It’s mainly designed to optimize the cutting process of all kinds of pre-cut materials such as wood, plastic, steel, and composite. So it can be an ideal solution for furniture makers, carpenters and other woodworking professionals who want to optimize their production process, material use and reduce material waste.

Pre-Cut Optimizer’s main feature is to analyze the dimensions of raw materials and calculate the optimal cutting patterns for maximum material utilization and minimization of waste. It supports several types of cutting patterns such as rectangular, linear and free-form, and allows users to create their own cutting patterns according to their requirements. It also allows users to enter material properties such as grain direction and surface quality to ensure that optimal cutting patterns are created for a particular type of material.

The calculation model used to determine the cutting plan processes the corresponding semi-finished cuts according to their cut length in order to obtain as many similar cuts of each bar as possible. As a result of the calculation, you will receive a detailed cut list with all items to be cut, alternatively a bar list with a graphic representation of the displayed bar, a remainder list and a corresponding requirements list (order list). You can print out these configurable lists or make them available to other software via the Windows clipboard for further processing.

Pre-Cut Optimizer’s friendly UI makes it easy for users to enter material dimensions and cutting patterns. Its advanced program algorithms allow you to quickly calculate the optimal cutting patterns for large batches of materials, saving time and effort for users in the production process. In addition, its ability to generate detailed reports and production plans is a big advantage for inventory management and production scheduling. Even better, it can integrate seamlessly with other manufacturing and design software, making it ideal for businesses of all sizes.
