Batch Style Cutting
Batch Style Cutting is a schedule-based, glass cutting optimization package that uses a sophisticated layout generation algorithm to deliver high yields in an easy to use platform. HP3’s Batch Style Cutting offers flexible control over the batch prior to optimization, giving users the opportunity to accommodate high priority jobs or jobs that may produce poor yields. Cycle times are reduced and yields are increased. HP3’s Batch Style Cutting can be integrated with a number of manufacturer’s equipment, making the transition seamless without the need to invest in new cutting equipment.
