At this time, maxcut does not include automated stock or offcut management features.
However, there is a manual workaround using the sub sizes feature, which can help simulate basic offcut usage control.
Sub sizes allow you to manually define available smaller sheet sizes (such as offcuts or partial panels) that maxcut can include in optimization.
Go to Manage > Sheet Materials
Select the material you want to configure
Click Edit
Scroll down to the Material Sub Sizes section
Click Add and define:
Maximum Length
Maximum Width
Quantity Available
Note: A quantity of 0 means that sub panel will not be used in optimization.
💡 This allows you to list known offcuts as “available stock” and control how many times they’re used.
This is a manual setup — MaxCut does not automatically track which panels are leftover or generate a real-time inventory of usable offcuts. If you're looking for dynamic inventory tracking or automated stock deduction, this may not fully meet your needs.
