Overview
Optimizer for Sections is a stand-alone section nesting optimization software, capable to calculate the optimum yield of materials of 1D cutting for materials such as sections, bars, tubes, pipes, beams, rod, angle or others linear materials supplied in prefixed standard lengths.
Optimizer for Sections is used to generate optimized layouts and reduce scrap. It automatically generates the optimum cutting layouts once the Cut-Piece specification and section specification has been entered. Optimizer for Sections has been designed to quickly produce optimized cutting layouts.
Optimizer for Sections provides high utilization layouts, significantly reducing the waste and maximizing productivity. It saves time, and shortens production cycle.
Above video is of an older version. For the latest version, please download demo copy.

Limitations
This is a demo version of Optimizer for Sections - Section Nesting Software. This demo version is fully functional except the following restrictions :
- Allowed Sheet Varieties = 1.
- Allowed Cut - Piece Varieties = 2.
Note
- Varieties are different from Sheet and Cut-Piece quantity. E.g. Size 645 is one variety; Size 790 is second variety.
- For trying out a bigger combination you may type in the data in Optimizer for Sections evaluation copy installed at your end and send the saved data file via email as an attachment. We shall optimize the data at our end and send back the results to you that can be viewed and printed with the evaluation copy of Optimizer for Sections.
System Requirements
- Any Windows Platform (32bit / 64bit).
