User interface, machine control, optimization computer

• Used in the 1990s until the mid-2000s
• According to the manufacturer, it can be operated without computer skills
• Storage capacity for 300 different lengths, divided into 10 cut lists

Depending on the application, different control modules are used:

• Module 5.01
• Length cutting and manual error trimming
• Module 5.02
• Semi-automatic - length cutting based on cutting lists
• Module 5.03
• Fully automated for mass production, without error detection
• Module 5.04
• Especially for error trimming; labeling by chalk marking or laser guide light
• Module 5.05
• Partial optimization; Error trimming similar to Module 5.04, but with determination of the maximum fixed length according to the parts list
• Module 5.06
• Full optimization based on priorities set (length, quantity, assessment ratio, minimum wastage, ..)
• Module 5.061
• Similar to Module 5.06, but with consideration of quality (quality optimization)
• Module 5.062
• Similar to Module 5.06, but with regard to the width of workpiece
• Module 5.07
• Full optimization with consideration of values ​​for each workpiece, consideration of timber quality

Further development: Control 6.0
