Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Plywood Cut Optimizer, formulas, and expected usage.
What does this plywood optimizer calculate?
It estimates how many identical rectangular pieces fit on each sheet, compares rotated and non-rotated layouts, and computes sheets needed.
Why include kerf in layout calculations?
Kerf accounts for blade thickness removed on each cut, which directly affects how many parts actually fit on a sheet.
Does this support mixed-size nesting?
No. This version focuses on repeated same-size rectangles, which is fast and useful for many cabinet and framing cut lists.
Can I use this for purchasing estimates?
Yes, as a planning estimate. Add contingency for defects, grain direction constraints, and real-world cut sequencing.
