Features
Fully integrated in SAP
TRIM SUITE is fully integrated in SAP. Mark an order in PPDS, click on the additional button in the menu and the planning process is activated.

One-click-optimization
Drill down in the orders you selected to identify quantity, width and other aspects allocated to the specified order. Restrictions of the order and the equipment such as technical requirements of the role cutter can be accessed as well. A click on the "solution" button takes you to possible solutions to your planning demands.

Easy-to-use interface
Even though some trim challenges are complex, optimization with TRIM SUITE is simple. Optimization is done with a single click. You can also ask TRIM SUITE to create multiple solutions automatically and just pick our preferred solution if multiple targets of optimization are used at the same time. The easy-to-use interface guides users intuitively through their trim process and trim results. Manual adjustments are easy to perform by drag and drop if needed.

Quality trim
TRIM SUITE can help you to optimize the trim from stock even when quality issues in the supply are detected. Defect areas on mother reels on stock - for example from coating - which are detected by camera inspection or other means are considered when the trim is planned. In this screenshot defect areas are indicated by the color black. Areas which are not used due to close defects are indicated by the color grey. Yellow indicates left over areas (trim loss). The light red lines indicate splices within mother reels.

Variable optimization targets
In all cases the main target of optimization is minimizing loss. But we can also consider other targets. You can maximize yield or minimize overproduction when quantity is not fix by utilizing tolerances. You can set you optimization target to minimize storage costs if orders are trimmed ahead of required date. You are able to set targets to minimize knife changes. This helps you to reduce setup cost. An additional measure to reduce setup time is to avoiding changes in output width. Furthermore you are able to make Trim utilize stock elements before they age beyond their "best before“ date. Or if your production schedule is in trouble you may consider requirement dates to minimize delay.

Plans and pricing
All plans include:
- Cut planning for reels of any material, e.g. paper, foil, textile
- Multiple stage and sheet optimization (optional)
- TRIM for in-house production, extern procurement or versus stock
- Pre-select the orders or an entire block of orders within your preferred planning solution to directly start the trim optimization
- Full financial optimization by automatically taking optional orders into account
- Manual rework or adjustments as desired
- Individual definition of the optimal result by adjusting penalty costs (loss, changes, storage, yield,...)
- Create and compare multiple solutions by variations of penalty costs or technical restrictions
- Model cutting plans during planning by creation of combined orders (SAP standard)
- Traffic light system to monitor fulfillment of customer orders
- Automatically create sets of solutions, in dialog or background
