Most cutting optimisers make you install a Windows program, buy a licence, and fight a UI from another decade. Barcut Pro is a website. Sign up, and you're optimising in under a minute — completely free.
We switched from a spreadsheet and a lot of guesswork. Kerf and end trim are accounted for properly, so the plan the software gives us is the plan that actually works at the saw. Cut our offcut pile in half.
No install, no IT ticket, just signed in and started. I was sceptical it would beat our old desktop optimiser but it runs faster and the mixed stock length handling is genuinely better.
Does exactly what it says — put lengths in, get a cutting plan out. Would like a mobile view for the shop floor but the desktop version is solid every day.
Free was the hook, staying was easy. It found mixed-length combinations our team missed by hand and the offcut tracking means less material gets binned between jobs.
No licence, no install, no sales call. Create an account, add your stock lengths and profiles, and optimise your first job in a couple of minutes.
Production teams run Barcut Pro every day — cut lists in the morning, plans at the saw the same shift.
Rectangular parts nested into sheet material, with grain direction and blade width. Leave your address and we'll send one email when it ships.
