INVENTORY-BASED CUTTING OPTIMIZATION

Turn the stock on your rack into a cut-ready plan.

Enter the parts you need. KerfFlow evaluates compatible full stock and reusable remnants, then returns exact stock assignments, placements, ordered cuts, expected remnants, waste, and cost.

For linear stock and rectangular sheet cutting.

FROM REQUEST TO EXECUTION

A plan you can trace back to the rack.

Optimization is useful only when the result can be understood, issued, and reconciled with physical inventory.

01

Exact source

Every placement points to a specific stock item or remnant, not an abstract material total.

02

Rules retained

Kerf, trims, rotation, grain, dimensions, quantities, and compatible stock stay attached to the plan.

03

Complete result

Review ordered cuts, expected remnants, waste, and cost before a work order reaches the floor.

HOW KERFFLOW WORKS

Five clear steps from demand to cut plan.

Keep the planning flow connected without turning the result into a black box.

  1. 01

    Define the parts

    Add lengths or rectangular dimensions, quantities, material requirements, and allowed orientation.

  2. 02

    Select usable stock

    Work with physical full stock and eligible remnants already recorded in inventory.

  3. 03

    Apply cutting rules

    Set kerf, edge trims, rotation, grain, and other constraints that affect a feasible layout.

  4. 04

    Review the result

    Inspect source assignments, placements, cut order, waste, expected remnants, and cost.

  5. 05

    Issue the work

    Turn an accepted result into an executable cutting work order with traceable source stock.

BUILT AROUND CUTTING REALITY

For teams that plan material before the first cut.

KerfFlow focuses on shared planning problems across fabrication and production environments.

01

Metal fabrication

Plan profiles, bars, pipes, plates, and reusable offcuts against job demand.

02

Wood and panels

Organize rectangular parts, sheet direction, trims, and reusable panel remnants.

03

Aluminium systems

Connect profile lengths and physical stock to repeatable cutting work.

04

Glass and plastics

Plan rectangular layouts with material compatibility and handling constraints in view.

05

Furniture production

Move from part lists to traceable sheet assignments and expected leftovers.

06

Job shops

Review material use and plan cost before varied, low-repeat work reaches production.

CONTROLLED BY DESIGN

Operational data belongs to the right workspace.

KerfFlow separates public product information from the authenticated application and keeps organization workflows behind explicit access controls.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What teams ask before they start.

What does KerfFlow optimize?

KerfFlow plans cuts for linear stock and rectangular sheet stock. It connects requested parts to compatible physical stock and reusable remnants.

Does it work with the stock I already have?

Yes. The planning model is inventory-based: eligible full stock and remnants can be considered as concrete source items.

Does the result include a cutting sequence?

The accepted plan can retain exact placements and ordered cuts so execution does not depend on an unexplained utilization number.

Can I account for kerf and edge trims?

Yes. Kerf and usable-stock trims are part of feasibility and placement rules for the supported cutting modes.

Are sheet rotation and grain supported?

Rectangular sheet planning can apply allowed rotation and grain-sensitive constraints together with dimensions, kerf, and trims.

What happens to usable leftovers?

Expected remnants are visible in the result and can remain connected to the physical-stock workflow for later planning.

Can the plan support costing and quotes?

KerfFlow exposes material assignments, waste, expected remnants, and cost inputs that can inform job costing and quote preparation.

Where do I sign in?

The public website stays at kerfflow.com. Sign-in and every authenticated workspace screen are served from app.kerfflow.com.
