FastCUT^® Powerful™ Optimization Engine.
Optimization for us is about getting the greatest possible yield from material by trying millions of computer generated layouts. Sometimes it is about working out what stock to order in the first place. Even small improvements can result in large savings of material and considerably reduce production costs, maximizing material utilization minimizing waste. The optimization/nesting technology used today is vastly improved on what it was even several years ago because of the fantastic increase in micro speeds.
