Why CutMaster 2D?

Advanced optimization algorithms reduce waste and save material. It works with or without automated cutting equipment and consistently delivers the best cutting patterns.

High Material Yield

Significantly reduce panel waste and costs with advanced bin-packing algorithms that maximize material utilization.

Offcut Reuse

Save usable remnants from previous jobs and include them in future optimizations to minimize scrap.

Edge Banding

Full edge banding calculation with per-edge control. Banding dimensions are factored into the cutting optimization.

Grain Direction Control

Lock grain/texture direction per part so material patterns always align correctly on the finished product.

Excel, XML & JSON Import

Import parts and panels from Microsoft Excel, XML or JSON files. Load cutting lists directly from your ERP or CAD system.

DXF & JSON Export

Export optimized layouts to AutoCAD DXF format for CNC machines, or to XML and JSON for further processing and integration with external tools.

Reports & Labels

Detailed reports with material usage statistics. Customizable label printing with edge banding markers.

Preview & Print

Visual preview of all cutting patterns. Print layouts directly or adjust parts manually before output.

Multi-Language

Interface available in 17 languages including English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Dutch, Chinese, Portuguese, Polish, Turkish, Czech, Romanian, Russian, Hungarian, Bulgarian, Serbian and Croatian.
