Have you seen our module Plate Optimisation 2.0?

Plate Optimisation 2.0 is the perfect module for nesting of stair parts and BTL components.

Best possible rate of material utilisation rate with minimal waste, including cutting of waste wood!­

Nesting with Compass Software

Nesting with Compass Software

The system calculates the optimal arrangement of parts on each plate with the least amount of waste material possible. Plates are used to their maximum capacity. 

The user can decide which parts to optimise. They can choose to nest only one type of part on one plate, such as treads for stair production, or mix different parts, such as treads, stringers, and risers.

The optimisation process is initiated with a single click. After a few seconds, a graphical representation of the optimised plate with the parts appears on the screen.

Nesting without Nesting Machine

Our Dutch customer CPI Trappen nests stair parts using a standard 5 axis CNC machine and the Compass Software Plate Optimisation 2.0 module

This results in 20 % time savings and ca. 20 % material savings.

Dennis de Zeeuw plans to double his production from 6 to 12 stairs per week next year.
