CutITsmart is an integrated AtlasWMS module that extends the operation of the WMS system to the cutting of material. This is the only optimisation software of its kind integrated into a WMS system and thus represents a unique innovation and the best answer to the question as to how more savings can be generated in material, time, and work.

• Material utilisation and stock
• Movements in the logistics process
• Work and operation
• Utilisation and load on resources (cutting saws)
• Time required for cutting
• Costs
• Shipping of the cut pieces

THE SOFTWARE IS AVAILABLE IN TWO VERSIONS

Basic version – CutITsmart:
Through optimisation to material savings

CutITsmart takes into account and merges several orders at a time. Thus, in addition to ensuring excellent material optimisation it also significantly reduces the number of logistics movements.
Based on selected optimisation parameters and with regard to the current stock, the software automatically suggests the optimum cutting plan and generates working tasks. The user can also add tasks to the suggested cutting plan.
Thus, the optimisation plan can be fully automatic – CutITsmart itself generates a cutting work plan on the basis of orders received, or manual – the user determines which parameters and orders the software should take into account in optimising and generating the work plan.

Upgraded version – CutITsmart PPS:
Time and cost management

Apart from the optimum cutting plan, CutITsmart PPS (Production Planning System) also automatically distributes tasks among different saws and calculates the anticipated cutting time. Since it records single steps in the working process, the system also enables very accurate cost analysis. In addition to this, it also takes account of the expendable supplies and materials used in cutting and can therefore calculate the entire cutting cost.
Its ergonomic graphic interface makes it possible to move single tasks from one workplace to another.
In practice, cutting process optimisation requires several optimisation procedures while resolving some specific requirements.

CutITsmart PPS can optimise processes with regard to different parameters: Time required for cutting, Utilisation of material, Costs of cutting.
