Best tutorial found for lasercut layout......thanks a million....I would love to share the work I have done with this tutorial's help..... And would like to have your comments on it.....Thanks again... :-)
Is there a way to optimize the layout of the pieces on the sheets? I mean there are some large gaps between the pieces, especially on the bottom row. I am trying to reduce the total sheets of needed. Thank you!
Yes, one method is more involved scripting through grasshopper, the other is manually. I'm pretty lazy, so I like to use this method to just get the pieces out, then manually move things around. This is usually faster than it takes me to code the whole process. Someone familiar with evolutionary coding, like kangaroo, might know how to frame the problem. Possibly, the problem can be framed as using a collection of closed shapes (areas) to subtract, and therefore minimize, the area of another collection of shapes (the material sheets). The problem will focus on how to get the smallest area possible for the sheet material, with thresholds for # of sheets.

Thanks Aman! Glad it helped. Happy to send comments your way
@@MrAhblanks can I have your email id so that that I can have your comments on my work....
amazing work :)
thanx a lot it was helpful
What if it doesnt go from bottom to top and numbers are scrambled? Is there a way to rearrange them back?
