CutMaster 2D Lite is a rectangular nesting application whose purpose is to help you optimize the cutting layouts for various types of materials, such as panel metal, furniture and glass.

The GUI doesn’t look highly intuitive but it provides a well-structured suite of features waiting to be discovered. You can consult the help manual in case you do not understand the function of the configuration parameters.

You can personalize each project by providing information about the title, author, and client details (name, surname, address, phone number, and note).

You can opt for an automatic or manual calculation method. The automatic mode is fast and can be used for large quantities of cut parts, while the manual one is slower but it provides accurate results and lets you set the optimization process for each panel.

The tool allows you to pick the unit of measurement (e.g. millimeters, centimeters, inches, meters), specify the default panel dimensions, select the area display units, and enter the blade width.

CutMaster 2D Lite comes with a handy feature pack for helping you perform optimized cutting in order to boost your economical production of rectangular component units.

On the downside, it doesn’t offer support for several advanced configuration parameters that are available only in the Pro edition of the program, namely data importing options from XLS and XML files, exporting mode to DXF and XML file format, printing of part labels, printing more cutting layouts on a page, additional statistics, edge banding, reports and billing, price settings, total off-cut and current stock pricing, and archive managing tool.
