KerfCut: Rectangular Cut Optimizer [Evaluation Version]

Stop wasting sheet material and guessing your layout efficiency. KerfCut is a high-performance, industrial-grade desktop application designed specifically for workshops utilizing CNC machines, flatbed cutters, panel saws, lasers, and guillotines. 

Built using the robust MaxRects BSSF (Best Short Side Fit) 2D bin-packing algorithm, KerfCut consistently yields 85% to 95%+ material efficiency, turning complex cutting lists into optimized visual layouts in seconds.

Key Professional Features

Advanced Material Yield: Outperforms standard guillotine sequencing by analyzing true 2D space layout optimization.

Smart Constraint Handling: Lock grain direction or specify rotation limits per individual piece to protect wood grain textures or brushed metal finishes.

Precise Kerf Calculation: Blade width and saw kerf are baked directly into all spatial placements to ensure real-world cut accuracy on the shop floor.

Built-in Costing & Quotes: Automatically calculates raw material costs, setup times, labor estimates, and margins to export a professional, customer-ready PDF summary.

Legacy Compatibility: Seamlessly import piece lists via standard CSV or legacy `.ZAD` project files.
