Divide value

 

The divide value is the value optimised cutting lists are divided into.

 

For a divide category of 'Material' the divide values are the Material codes, for example, HARDBOARD-4MM, MDR-25MM ...

 

If there is no divide category set but a cutting list is divided based on the number of items the divide value is  blank. If the column is not visible it can be added via the 'Report settings' dialog

 

Sheets and Offcuts

 

There are fields available to show separate values for sheets and offcuts. There is a field to show the 'Offcuts created' for a run.

 

Scrap and offcuts

 

It is sometimes useful to divide the waste % into percentages relating to scrap and offcuts created. There are fields available for this.

 

Parameters

 

There are fields available to add the optimising and saw parameters for each run to the report

 

Fields available for the batch summary

 

A default set of fields are use for the batch summary. A wider range of fields can be selected via 'Settings - Report settings'. Most of the fields available for the Management summary can also be included in the Batch summary.
