Plate Cutting Solutions Reviews & Product Details

Plate Cutting Solutions is an ERP built for laser cutting, plate cutting and sheet-metal fabrication job shops. It was developed inside a working laser cutting business, so it follows a job the way a shop actually runs it: drawing, nest, quote, order, workshop, dispatch, invoice. Customers' files go straight in. DXF, DWG, NC1, STEP and PDF drawings are read automatically, and folded STEP parts are unfolded to a flat DXF with bend lines and a dimensioned fold drawing. True-shape nesting with part-in-part uses your own sheet sizes, and every quote is priced from the real nest, your sheet costs, cutting speeds, pierces, setup and fabrication processes. Tubes and sections (RHS, SHS, CHS, angle, channel) are quoted from STEP or NC1 files or typed sizes. A won quote becomes an order in one click. Operators sign in to the Floor app with a PIN on a phone, shared tablet or a screen at the press brake. They see their laser, folding and dispatch jobs with fold drawings attached, and time each process. When a job is marked ready for pick-up, the customer is emailed automatically. Packing slips, delivery dockets, part labels and courier labels come from the same order. Completed orders go to your accounting software as invoices and are emailed to the customer, without retyping. It also covers purchase orders and stock, test certificates, staff clock-in with geofencing, rosters, leave and timesheets for payroll. Quotes can go out in the customer's currency and language, in metric or imperial.
