Cut List Optimizer - Zeder Cut

Cut list optimizer for plywood, MDF and melamine: buy fewer boards, cut with less waste. Free forever, offline, no ads, no account. Plan ready for the saw in seconds.

Type your cut list, pick your board size, and seconds later you have a cutting plan with the least possible waste, with the cut sequence ready for the panel saw. Everything is calculated on your phone, so it works OFFLINE.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Enter your cut list: sizes and quantities. "20 side panels" is a single row.

2. Pick your board size, blade kerf, edge trim and grain direction.

3. Get the plan and the cut sequence: every board drawn, with yield and waste, and the cuts in order for the saw.

WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU

• Fewer boards per job: the optimizer tries hundreds of layouts and keeps the best one.

• Less waste: it reports yield and waste percentage, board by board.

• A plan the shop can read: numbered, colour-coded pieces, legible dimensions, pinch to zoom and pan.

• Real saw cuts: it honours blade kerf, edge trim and board grain. A cross-grain cut is a defect, not a packing option.

• Cut sequence: every board with its cuts in order, ready for the panel saw.

• Pieces that don't fit are listed with the reason, not hidden.

• Shop calculators: unit converter, fractions to millimetres, board area, edge banding metres and a waste calculator.

WHO IT IS FOR

Carpenters, furniture and kitchen makers, melamine shops, architects and interior designers, design students, and anyone building furniture at home. Works for plywood, MDF, melamine and any sheet material.

FREE, ALWAYS

• Unlimited optimizations, with the full engine.

• Up to 3 saved projects, 25 cut-list rows and 100 pieces per run. A row carries any quantity you like: "20 side panels" is a single row.

• Every board of the plan visible, with zoom.

• Yield summary, waste percentage and unplaced-piece list.

• Millimetres, centimetres and inches (fractional included).

• Light and dark theme.

IMPORTANT: the free version runs EXACTLY the same optimizer as Pro, at exactly the same effort. There is no cut-down engine. Only the size of the job is limited, never the quality of the result, and never your ability to see it. An optimizer you cannot verify is worthless: test it with your own cut list before you pay anything.
