Orders typed twice
Parts, materials and operations are copied from the quote into another system or onto paper. Every copy is a chance for a mistake.
CUTL Quoting
Production management that starts from the accepted quote
Send a project to production in one click. Plan shifts by material, nest each shift, give operators a route card with QR codes and compare planned with actual material when the shift closes.
The quote is done, then the paperwork starts
Once a customer says yes, the job moves to spreadsheets, whiteboards and printed drawings. The numbers from the quote stay behind.
Progress by walking around
To know where a job stands, someone goes to the machine and asks. Parts that are cut but not yet bent or painted are hard to count.
Material use nobody checks
The sheets planned and the sheets actually cut are rarely compared, so overconsumption and scrap stay out of sight.
Production management
Run the shop floor from the same numbers
An accepted quote becomes production orders. Plan shifts, give operators a route card, follow every operation and compare plan with actual material use.
Send to production in one click
From a project, from drafts or from the part library. Every part becomes a production order.
Shifts planned by material
Tasks grouped by material with total cutting time and area. Pick the operator and the date.
Nesting for the day
A layout for the sheets the operator will actually cut, printed into the shift PDF.
Route card with QR codes
A printed work order per shift. Operators scan a task on their phone and report each operation.
Status that follows the work
Operation and task status update from the reported quantities: waiting, in progress, done.
Plan versus actual
Enter the material used when the shift closes. CUTL compares planned and actual m² per material, ready to export.
From accepted quote to closed shift
01
Send to production
On the project, press Send to production and confirm. Every part becomes a production order with its material, customer and operations. Drafts and part library parts go the same way.
02
Plan the shift
In Shift Planning, waiting tasks are grouped by material with their cutting time and area. Select them, pick the operator and the date, and create the shift.
03
Cut and report
Nest the shift and print the route card. Operators scan a task with their phone and report each operation as it gets done.
04
Close and compare
Complete the shift with the sheets actually used per material. CUTL compares planned and actual m² and flags overconsumption.
The shop floor, run from the same numbers
Production orders keep the material, the customer and the operations from the quote, so nobody types them again.
Shift planning by material
Each material group shows its task count, planned cutting time and area. Quick picks select urgent tasks, fill four hours or take the first ten.
Nesting for the day
Each shift gets a layout per material for the sheets the operator will cut. It is stored on the shift, printed into the shift PDF and exported as DXF.
Route card with QR codes
One printed PDF per shift. Each task page has the part thumbnail, material, quantity, the operation route with checkboxes, a QR code and a signature line.
Status from reported quantities
Every operation has its own done counter. Operation, task and shift status follow from the counts, and task progress counts only fully finished parts.
A label for every part
Print labels from a job or a shift with your own template: QR code, barcode, part thumbnail and part data, as a PDF for A4 sheets or a thermal roll. Scanning a label opens the part in CUTL.
Reports with CSV export
Shift task execution, material consumption and offcut analytics, on screen or as a CSV file with headers in your language and a totals row.
Built for shops that cut, bend and ship every day
Shop owners
See planned against actual material per shift and per material, and export it to compare weeks, materials or operators.
Production planners
Build shifts from the waiting tasks by material, time and urgency, and hand each operator a nested, printed plan.
Operators
Scan the QR code on the route card and report each operation from a phone. Different operators can report different operations on the same part.
Questions about production management
Three ways: Send to production on a project, Send to Production on one or more drafts, or Launch to Production on a part in the Part Library. A project needs a price, a material and a cutting mode on every part first, and this step cannot be undone.
No. Operators scan the QR code on the printed route card with a phone. Each operation has its own field, so different operators can update different operations on the same part. Progress can also be updated on a desktop.
No. An order can be worked on its own: open it from Production Orders and report progress on its operations directly. If you want it back in planning, Reset progress returns it to Shift Planning.
Shifts are closed by hand, because material use is known only after cutting. Per material, enter the sheet size and the number of sheets used, decimals allowed, or square metres when you cut from remnants. CUTL then shows plan, actual and the difference.
Yes, as CSV. Every report exports a file that opens in Excel, Numbers, Google Sheets or LibreOffice, with column headers in your account language. The Integration API covers calculations, projects and nesting, but not shifts yet.
