I regularly see questions about the construction of the flows.
On a project in progress I have a lot of square Alu profile 15 x15, 20x20, etc... Obviously they are not all the same length. But for each length I have a different reference (one ref per length).
Obviously with the nomenclature I know how many I have per reference. And to find out how much I can do per bar, a simple division in excel with a formula with a condition and presto, it's done.
But reading you, I have the impression that there is another method, a little less "Gaulish"
I remember that in mycadtools (old version), there is an application that calculates all this automatically, but I can't find it, it was called cut... Something.
Do you have any idea of the price of logibarre because I am no longer subscribed to mycadtools 2019. I looked at their site, there are some very interesting things for other software.
but looking at it I still have the impression that the one that is the most integrated (the most direct) is "CuttingOptimisation" but as I use this once all the bishops' deaths I would ultimately lean towards the least expensive and the one bought one shoot.
Well guys I thank you for answering very well : but you're cow with me because now I have a terrible dilemma. How to choose the best answer knowing that I can't choose my question as the best answer and since there is no choice either to designate the best question either;-) As long as I don't have respiratory distress with breathtaking answers.
There is a " free " solution but it requires a little work from a computer scientist who knows a little JAVA. All you have to do is have the tool you like developed directly. I attach screens from my calculator that I had made by a computer scientist. The calculations are very simple and I don't claim to have an optimal result but it's already more reliable and faster than "manual " calculations.
Ability to generate a pdf flow sheet for your workshop
My answer doesn't directly provide a solution but I just wanted to tell you that if you have an IT department maybe that... Note that the application does not take into account cuts different from 90° and does not take into account the thickness of the cutting blade.
Another alternative. With an excel for the thickness of the cut, have a good day. Spectrum
If someone is a specialist in EXCEL programming, compared to LOGIBARRE I only lack the management of cutting angles that I can have from the SOLIDWORKS BOMs. Thank you for the possible help, basically this EXCEL uses a macro available on CUTTING optimization or the notion of NESTING.
I didn't know this software, I'm going to install it, otherwise thank you for your paintings which take up the operations of realization in the workshop, it's a clear support. Have a nice day.
