SPLIT WORK PROCESS

Breaking down the overall process into individual processes allows for optimal efficiency and high-level optimization. Leather hides are digitized using a scanner and evaluated in the leather storage facility. Production orders are automatically generated via an interface with the ERP system. Significant savings are achieved through order combination, targeted preselection of leather hides, and, ultimately, multi-hide nesting. This approach maximizes resource use and minimizes waste, ensuring a highly efficient production flow.

Nesting & Cutting

PRODUCTION PLAN

• Import and conversion of styles and patterns
• Production quantity management
• Distribution of work to one or multiple cutting stations

LEATHER SCANNING USING OPTICAL DEVICES

• Automatic detection of the leather contour
• Determination of quality zones across five levels using video projection
• Barcode label printing
• Leather purchase report generation

INTELLIGENT ORDER MANAGEMENT

• Optimal matching of individual orders
• Article-based management for streamlined production.

AUTOMATIC NESTING

• Automatic and interactive nesting directly on the leather
• Automatic quality zone matching
• Easy-to-use wireless mouse and keyboard
• Multi-hide nesting for efficient material usage

CUTTING

• Automatic cutting and marking using various tools, including:
  • Oscillating knife
  • Round knife
  • Punches with different diameters
  • Drills
  • Pens

COLLECTING

• Interactive and efficient part collection after cutting
• Utilizes video projection for easy identification.
• Various collecting methods tailored to the type of production.

REPORTS

• Detailed reports on leather stock
• Cutting efficiency and material consumption reports
• Mini-markers
• Production quantity reports

IN-LINE SOLUTIONS

Optical devices like cameras and projectors are utilized for accurate acquisition and visualization. The OT1 Tool is a cutting tool specifically designed for leather, ensuring optimal performance. An integrated cleaning brush guarantees reliable operation of the optical devices, while also significantly extending the service life of the cutting pad.

1 ZONE (Compact Solution)

A compact configuration that includes all the features of a large system: leather scanning, automatic nesting, collecting, and reports. These operations are carried out directly on the cutter table, ensuring a fast and highly efficient process.

2 / 3 ZONES (Series Production)

To boost productivity, the system is expanded with two additional zones:

1. Leather scanning and nesting
2. Cutting
3. Collecting

These three steps are carried out directly on the machine, with a conveyor belt moving the leather seamlessly from one stage to the next, ensuring a continuous and cost-efficient workflow.
