Defect-OPT

Defect-OPT is the first optimization system that allows you to exclude in advance the areas with defects on the available space of the sheet to place the glass during optimization.
Defect-OPT is a dynamic optimization system, available as an additional module of Re-OPT and fully integrated in the cutting line supervisor Line Manager.

One of the features that makes unique and distinguishes Defect-OPT is that it does NOT mark as "broken" glasses placed over the defects and predisposes them to be re-cut again (solution which potentially creates more waste).
With this innovative tool the area with the defect is declared "not usable", so equal to an area of waste, and therefore will not be used by the optimization process that will place glasses all-around of that area allowing a very low coefficient of yield and easy to open optimizations.



Defect-OPT allows the manual definition of the defects position on the sheet but found it’s natural and efficient evolution when installed together with the GlassInspector scanner manufactured by Deltamax and usually placed between the Crane Loader and the Cutting Table.

In case of presence of defects, Defect-opt acquires the “map of defects”, suspends the cut of the sheet and proceeds with its re-optimization by means of the Re-opt module excluding the defective areas and sends the new cutting schema to the cutting table, which will resume the execution of the current program.
