How to quickly enter a list of parts, for example, from Excel?
Example of a task for a linear cutting calculator:
For example, you need to cut 6-meter boards into: 23 pieces of 1.2m, 12 pieces of 2.3m, 6 pieces of 3m, and 17 pieces of 0.8m. How can you use the least amount of original boards and minimize waste?
Cutting with angled cuts. Cutting with angled edges (like picture frames):
In the case of two types of segments with different angles (for example, 30 and 60 degrees), two separate calculations need to be done for each type of segment. However, if the angle is the same for all segments (for example, 45 degrees), the cutting task can usually be solved with a single calculation.
For example, consider the task of cutting 4 types of segments from 2-meter-long blanks: with lengths of 79cm/75cm (outer/inner length), 59/55cm, 39/35cm, and 29/25cm.
Solution: In the calculator, we specify the AVERAGE length of the segments: 77cm, 57cm, 37cm, and 27cm, while setting the blank length to 1.98 meters (the length of the blank for cutting 2 meters minus the difference between the maximum and average length of any segment, which is (59-57) = 2cm). In the resulting cutting map, the cutting points should be marked as shown in the figure:
