-
Does a global optimization by handling multiple bars
- The component will explore multiple combinations of the
parts to be cut in order to find the best one.
-
Pieces to be cut can have angles different of 90 degrees at their
extremities. A lot of material can be saved by properly matching
2 pieces having sharp extremities. For instance, if you match 2 pieces
having 45 degrees at their extremities you will save as much as the
height of the pieces.
-
Automatically compute the number of maximal repetitions for the
current layout - If the current layout can be repeated multiple
times by using only the pieces to be cut, there are several special
properties and methods to do that. Thus you don't have to manually
remove the utilized pieces and optimize again. Just use this feature and
the running time will be reduced considerably.
-
Compute the cutting order - which is very important if the extremities
have angles different of 90 degree. If all angles have 90 degrees the
cutting order is not important.
-
Very fast algorithm (Solutions are obtained in seconds) - The
component is based on a combination of highly tuned optimization algorithms.
Each of them is designed to optimize a special case.
-
Statistics related to the current optimization - At the end
of the optimisation process you will have access to the: number of
cuttings, cuttings definition, waste, number of utilized pieces, cutting
order, rotation of the pieces ...
-
Independent measurement metric - The way in which you
introduce the data is a general one. You don't have to specify a metric.
Just choose a metric in your mind and enter all data using that metric
only.
-
Adjustable cutting blade thickness - Usually the cutting saw
blade is greater than zero, unless you plan to break the piece that you
cut.
-
Adjustable optimization level -One may specify how many
layouts to be generated before the solution is outputted. If you don't
have too much time and you don't have a good computer you may set the Optimization Level to a low level. This feature helps you to run
your program on any kind of computer (from 486 to the best processors
available today).
-
Remove the used pieces - using a special method of the
component. This will reduce the the running time because we have a fast
C++ implementation inside. Thus you don't have to manually remove the
utilized pieces.
-
Can be embedded within any language that supports automation (Visual Basic,
VB .NET, Delphi, C++Builder, VC++, Java, C# etc) and dynamic link library (dll).
