Stepping up the pace of production

Commissioning of the system and training on the use of the CADmatic 5 operating software, the Cut Rite cutting optimization software and the woodStore storage software took place around three months ago [...] This meant that we could only cut a few panels in each shift and for the remaining time the machine was idle," reports Löffl. "Now, the employees know what they want to cut in the afternoon and they enter [...] either. On some days, we had to spend more time moving panels with a forklift truck than we could on cutting. So we were keen to improve performance in storage and sawing." In this case, improving performance
