About this tool
Work out how many full sheets you need and exactly how to cut them
How it works
1
Open the tool. There is nothing to install, and it keeps working without internet.
2
Choose your material and the full sheet you buy it in. Thickness, price and supplier are optional but they end up on the PDF.
3
Enter the parts you need: quantity, width, height and a name. Turn rotation off for any part where the grain or the brushed direction has to run one way.
4
Set the saw kerf and the edge trim. Every gap between two parts really is that wide, so two 1220 parts do not fit on a 2440 sheet once the blade is 6 mm.
5
Click Optimise sheets. You get one drawing per sheet, to scale, with the part number, the size, whether it was rotated, where the saw runs and what is left over.
6
Save the usable offcuts. Next time you tick Use available offcuts first and BusiSmartPlate empties them before it opens a new full sheet.
7
Download the PDF: a summary page, one page per sheet with the drawing and the dimensions, and a parts list. Print it and it goes straight to the saw.
8
Pro members unlock the tool once through the shop. After that it works offline too.
9
Done, or something went wrong? Open the dashboard and start over with a clean sheet.
Reviews will be available soon.
