Cant Optimizer

Completely configurable to model machinery Includes parameters to model:

• All saw, chipper, clamp, and pin characteristics
• Gang saw spacing, including fixed or variable board spacing
• All common curve sawing machine centers (both mechanically-guided and numerically-controlled)
• Machine centers with left or right linebars and cant rotation
• Cant positioning methods Lineal and transverse

System fine-tuning Includes parameters to specify:

• Up to 12 possible skew orientations for the optimizer to consider
• Up to 12 possible curves for the optimizer to consider
• 1-7 order polynomial sawlines for the optimizer to fit for curve sawing solutions
• Programmable radius of curvature for various cant diameters
• Vertical shifting of solutions
• Opening face requirements
• Configurable edging and planing penalties
• Chip limits
• Risk analysis
