Hi All,
We are making a transition to cabinet vision for our CNC programs, these programs are based on daily jobs instead of the CNC operator picking a program based on the individual fixture. So presumably all material for a weeks worth of production is cut in a day and filtered through various production departments instead of one job at time. The goal is max yield of material.
Our company does not have the advanced production & scheduling module which seems like the simplest way to achieve this goal. I have been using the list view of the resource scheduling board and starting jobs that require the same material on the CNC to start on the same day but is tedious as the list view does not show material I only go by tribal knowledge of materials per fixture to “batch”.
Any suggestion or insight is appreciated.
