Plugin Builder - Cut Planning Integration

This article discusses the settings for integration with the Cut Planning cutting optimizer, where the following topics are presented:

When integrating with this cut optimizer, provide the Plugin Cut Planning to receive the *.csv file exported from Promob. This plugin imports the same *.csv to the optimizer.

• When it is a machine (disconnector) from SCM/Tecmatic, contact the SCM manufacturer. In some situations with SCM/Tecmatic, this plugin is already bundled with the equipment, but it is necessary to confirm;
• When it is an Usikraft machine (disconnector), provide the plugin with the Usikraft manufacturer or Geek System (software company responsible for Cut Planning).
