Cut planning toolkit

Turn material quantities into a practical cut plan.

Choose the tool that matches the stock you are actually buying. Linear stock packs required lengths into boards, trim or pipe. Sheet planning lays rectangular parts onto panels with explicit kerf, margin and rotation choices.

Planning boundary

Useful for estimating — not a substitute for product or fabrication requirements

Plans use deterministic packing heuristics for practical estimating and cut-list organization. They are not guaranteed to be mathematically optimal for every combination of stock, kerf and part constraints.

Cut planners organize user-supplied stock and rectangular part dimensions. They do not determine structural orientation, grade, grain direction, pattern matching, edge support, fastening, code, fire/moisture assemblies, product suitability, manufacturer instructions or safe machine setup.
