The document describes the OptiTex CutPlan solution which can help manufacturing plants improve efficiency and reduce costs by better managing the cutting process. It allows users to define fabrics and markers, receive accurate cost calculations and production status reports, store data in XML files, determine optimal nesting of markers to minimize waste and remnant pieces, and handle smaller order sizes. It aims to take control of costs and the cutting room by optimizing the number of plies and cuts while providing reports on marker definitions and production costs.

1. Improve plant efficiency with the new CutPlan Solution

2. A typical manufacturing plan

3. Wouldn ’ t you want to Dramatically reduce material waste?

4. Wouldn ’ t you want to Reduce amount of remnant pieces?

5. Wouldn ’ t you want to Be able to handle smaller order sizes, which create significant challenges in the cutting process, where fabric is typically spread and cut at heights of only 3 to 5 ply.

6. Wouldn ’ t you want to Control your production with readily available reports?

7. Costs … costs … costs! about 50-70% of the production costs or about 35-40% of the total wholesale price of sewn products. Fabrics and other raw materials contribute to:

8. Define: fabrics and quantity per bundle/size. fabric properties size, cost and weight. Your marker table properties Type of nesting Receive: Accurate cost production calculations Ongoing status during processing Excel report file, XML file for all the data store and nested MRK files. Number of order bundles Take control of your costs!

9. Take control of your cutting room! OptiTex CutPlan will determine: what markers should be made; how fabrics should be spread and cut; the most cost-effective number of plies, colors and size mixes.

10. Provides ongoing status report

11. Stores data and nested MRK files

12. Calculates quantity of order bundles

13. Calculates Marker definitions OptiTex CutPlan calculates the number of plies according to the specific marker definitions (marker width, type of spread, etc.) set by each user.

14. Creates nesting markers for production

15. OptiTex CutPlan Reduces material consumption Maximizes marker efficiency Provides detailed spreading information for multi colors plies. Saves time when managing multi colors orders Calculates production costs accurately for better management Minimizes time-to-market by dramatically reducing development cycle
