Cut Planner 6.1

Cut Planner by Pattern Systems International, Inc. is a production planning and optimization tool that creates efficient cutting layouts for sheet goods and linear materials. Designed for woodworking, casework, furniture, and light fabrication environments, it helps shops reduce material waste, shorten planning time, and produce clear, shop-ready instructions for saw operators.

Key capabilities:

• Advanced optimization: Accounts for kerf, trim, grain direction, edge-banding allowances, part priorities, and cut sequencing to maximize yield.
• Flexible materials: Supports multiple sheet sizes, mixed materials, and remnant reuse to make the most of offcuts.
• Clear outputs: Generates readable cutting diagrams, part labels, and step-by-step cutting sequences, along with yield, cost, and time summaries.
• Easy data exchange: Imports parts lists and exports results in common file formats for smooth handoffs to purchasing, scheduling, or downstream systems.
• Configurable settings: Lets you tailor saw parameters, cut directions, safety margins, and reporting to match your shop’s standards.

Whether you’re a small custom shop or a high-throughput operation, Cut Planner delivers the accuracy, consistency, and control you need to turn parts lists into optimized patterns quickly and reliably.
