intelliDivide Cutting, materialManager

In the materialManager, in the "Optimization" area, you have the option of creating material groups for optimization parameters for gates and specifying corresponding parameters.

Material groups can be formed based on material properties.

In the case of hard materials such as HPL, the cuts can be reduced. This reduces waste and saves costs.

For materials that are often delivered damaged, the gates can be increased to ensure the quality of the cut parts.

In order for the settings defined in the materialManager to take effect, this function must be activated in intelliDivide for the respective machine.

In the "Bleed" column in the "Slabs" tab, the material group is displayed for each material.
From now on, parameters for gates can be stored in the materialManager in the optimization area in the same way as the leftovers that are used in intelliDivide depending on the material. For this purpose, the materials are grouped according to their properties.
This grouping makes it possible to define different gates depending on the properties of a material.
For example, with very hard materials, the bleeds can be reduced. This reduces waste and saves costs. On the other hand, in the case of frequently damaged material, the gates can be increased to ensure the quality of the cut parts.
This feature is license-dependent and included in intelliDivide Cutting Advanced/Premium.
