work in progress

N.B: To access this windows in Opera Job Management: from the Accessories Archive, select the button

We define 2D optimization, that function that allows you to optimize the cutting of glass, sheets and panels.

Accessories Archive: panes parameter settings

The Panes in Opera Job Management is loaded in Accessories Archive respecting technical parameters essential for the correct use of the accessory (function and units of measurement)

• Use is set by choosing the type Pane.
• The unit of measurement is set in m2.

Accessories archive: optimization parameter settings

Through the button , if the module is active, we define the sheet data in the 2D optimization parameters panel.

Below is the data setting procedure for sheet optimization:

• Set in the field Vein type the veins of the sheet on the archive (None, Horizontal Vein, Vertical Vein). The definition of the vein is linked to the management of the type of sheet cutting.

• Enable the field 2D optimization to indicate the size of the sheet to be optimized in the L sheet/H sheet fields.

• • Stock W/Stock H: define the optimization measures of the sheet (up to 4 fields).

• The fields Split oversize cuts and Overlay are created for the management of warp profiles (used for example in Curtain Wall). The activation of the first field splits the cuts when they are bigger than the size of the sheet you choose to use; the second field can be used to indicate, if necessary, how much the divided pieces overlap each other.

At this point our panel is ready for cutting.

Accessories Archive: price setting

The price framework with the type Panel

It is possible to define a price for single pane in the price panel that opens when the button is pressed.

• We enter the standard price per m2, keeping in the field Price type File:Keyomenutendina.png the Standard type.
• We enter a second price for the sheet by choosing in the field Price type the Panel type.

• Indicate in the fields Stock W and Stock H the size of the sheet to which to link the price.

Job Management: sheets optimization

After creating the job with the panels and/or glasses to be optimized, we can analyze the list of materials and technical prints.

The Job Part List

In the Job Part List panel there’s a new key File:Sheetsbutton.png that allows to develop the material in pieces considering the size of the sheet.

The price per m2 is still present if we disable the File:Sheetsbutton.png button.

2D Optimization Print

To check the optimized sheet printing, from the Print Options panel, select 2D Optimization and print.

The print shows us:

• the number of sheets to be optimized
• the relative dimensions to be produced
• the id code part to determine the job position
• the size of the waste
• the chosen vein in archive

• • the vein set in the job filling. In this case a dart appears in the press on the panel indicating that it has been turned. The vein can be set in the Filling management panel, in the appropriate field.
