A cut list, not a wish list
The optimizer treats each spec as its own pool, plays Tetris with the cut lengths, and reports the resulting stock yield. You see exactly how much pipe each spec saved versus a naive cut order.
Cut List module
Cut lists that fight for every meter of stock
Piping.Tools turns your scanned isometrics into an optimized cut list — by spec, by length, by drop. Send it straight to the shop and stop wasting stock.
- Optimization by spec, length, and stock yield
- Drop-length tracking by spool and drawing
- Stock yield % at a glance per material
- Excel export for the saw operator
From drawing to saw
The cut list is born from the same Smart Scan output that drives the BOM and weld log, so quantities never disagree. Export to Excel for the saw operator or push directly to a shop tablet.
What you get
Stock yield KPIs
See yield trend over time so you can prove savings to the cost engineer or the GC.
Drop tracking
Track average drop per spec to identify which materials are bleeding stock.
Per-spool detail
Drill into a single spool to see exactly which cuts came from which length of stock.
Frequently asked questions
Where do the cut lengths come from?
Cut lengths are computed from the isometrics extracted by Smart Scan. You can review and override any length before optimization runs.
Can I set my own stock lengths?
Yes. Stock lengths and material specs are configured per project so the optimizer matches what your supplier actually delivers.
How is stock yield calculated?
Stock yield is the ratio of useful cut length to total stock consumed, after the optimizer assigns cuts to lengths. Drops below a configurable threshold are counted as scrap.
