SmartCut is a professional software specialised in cutting layouts and optimizing panel.

Using advanced algorithms, it generates the most optimized cutting layouts, providing for maximum material yield. This software can help you maximize productivity by reducing panel waste and costs and by saving the time needed to create and analyze patterns.

SmartCut may be used in wood processing, glass, plastics, metallic works and other similar industries and works fast even with large number of parts.

At the end of the optimization process, Smart2DCutting shows the layouts and needed panels in a cutting layout. Cutting layouts can be saved and reused later without the need to run optimization again. Panels and remaining materials (reusable offcuts) are stored in a stock management system.

Smart2DCutting allows you to print labels that include parts, panels and reusable offcuts information as well as thecutting layout, cutting report andpanels stock.

Different materials are recognized and managed by Smart2DCutting, allowing the input of mixedmaterial parts and panels.

Smart2DCutting supports multiuser connections. By setting the database location to the same network drive on all workstations, you can have your data stored and accessed in one central location.

Here are some key features of "Smart2DCutting":

· Measurements in Metric (mm, cm, dm, m) and US Customary / British Imperial (in, ft, din) units
· Input panels and parts data manually through the keyboard, by loading native Smart2DCutting files or by importing
· existing CSV files.
· Jobs management system
· Highly optimized cutting layouts (avg. 95%-97% coverage) computed very fast. Even for 2000 parts the cutting
· layout is generated in less than 10 seconds on today's modest computers.
· Multiuser support
· Edge banding for parts
· Preview/Print all layouts and reports
· The cutting layout can be saved for later reuse
· The cutting layout can be saved to a plain text file for further processing using a cnc software
· Adjustable cutting blade thickness per material type
· Grain direction control for individual parts
· Margin width control for panels and parts
· Adjustable optimization level
· Adjustable optimization direction
· Handle different material types for panels and parts
· Detailed report, showing a list of used panels, resulted parts and offcuts, with their dimensions and layout
· statistics
· Cost calculation report
· Printable part, panel and offcut labels
· Print barcodes on parts labels
· Stock management system
· Multilanguage support

Requirements:

· Pentium - 350 MHz processor or better
· 64 MB of available memory
· 10 MB of free hard disk space
· Graphic system capable of displaying 1024x768 pixels in 256 colors

Limitations:

· The 30 days evaluation copy of Smart2DCutting has printing disabled and a parts limit of 10.000 parts.
· When the evaluation period expires, after 30 days, the parts limit is reduced to 30.
· Nag screen.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· new feature: added global saw width setting. The saw width can be defined as a global value for all materials or for
· each material type
· new feature: added new "Decimal Feet" unit to “Display units” and “Default data entry units”
· bug fixed: Smart2DCutting failed to start (freezed at 20% while loading) if it could not access the database location
· (i.e. folder doesn't exists or network path not available). If the database path is not accessible, Smart2DCutting will
display a warning message and will switch to the default database location:
· "%commonappdata%RasterweqSmart2DCuttingdb".
