In combination with TSO - the first True Shape
Optimiser, GPS.opt increases the potential
to save material and therefore money.
Focusing
on wastage results alone reserves GPS.opt the top position in the industries software
solutions. GPS.opt also allows a seamless integration into the production control
software and the associated benefits of using a range of perfect planning tools
to layout the cutting schedule. This secures a competitive edge for your company.
With GPS.opt you can decide
to use A-racks or harp cars to stack the glass after cutting. The stacking method
makes no difference to the system. The programme optimises the space required
on the racks taking into account the production sequence and packing requirements.
The stock plate editor allows the operator to modify the optimisation and add
new sizes manually or insert remakes to avoid wasteful remnant sheets.
Normal optimisers surround shapes with a rectangle to allow breakout but this
increases the wastage enormously. TSO however integrates the shapes together which
reduces the waste significantly. The degree of nesting can be selected using parameters
in GPS.opt but the system automatically generates help cuts to aid the breakout
of complex shapes.
"DXF, CAD, CNC", these technical words are part of the GPS.opt vocabulary.
Using these standard interfaces GPS.opt can receive geometric code and convert
it into control code to directly run cutting tables, glass loading systems.
