Your Workshop is Bleeding Profit on the Engineering Table

Every custom cabinet requires dozens of engineering decisions. One mistake in groove depth, boring position, or edge banding deduction costs more than a year of software.

Manual Calculations

2-4 hours per project on panel sizing, hardware positions, and material deductions.

Cost: Delayed quotes, missed deadlines

Spreadsheet Errors

One wrong formula propagates through every panel. By the time you catch it, materials are already cut.

Cost: $500+ per ruined job

Creeping Dimensions

Forgetting to deduct 2mm edge banding per side turns a 600mm cabinet into 604mm. It won't fit.

Cost: Rework, angry customers

CNC Crashes

Wrong boring depths or missing flip indicators destroy panels and machine bits.

Cost: Machine downtime, scrap panels

Material Waste

Poor layouts ignore your scrap inventory and grain direction. You buy more sheets than needed.

Cost: 15-25% material overhead

Tribal Knowledge Risk

When your best engineer leaves, their expertise walks out. New hires start from zero.

Cost: Inconsistent quality, training burden

Engineering Results

Auto-Split Applied Pantry (320cm) split into 2 units + connector
System 32 Boring Generated 47 hinge holes, 32 dowel holes, 16 shelf pin holes
Face-B Flip Required 6 panels need flipping before boring operation
EB Deduction Applied 2mm deducted from 42 edges (prevents 4mm creep error)
Grain Direction Locked Wood texture vertical on doors, horizontal on tops
Inventory Optimization 3 panels fit on scrap pieces (Priority 0)

What Just Happened?

In 3 seconds, the engine made decisions that would take a human engineer 2-4 hours:

  • Auto-Split Logic: The pantry was 320cm — too big for your 280cm sheet. Instead of an error, it split into 2 units with a connector, maintaining proportional internal spacing.
  • System 32 Boring: Blum hinge pattern placed at 32mm increments. Cup holes + dowel holes calculated for perfect alignment. The CNC operator sees exactly where to drill.
  • Face-B Flip: 6 panels have holes on both sides. The software tells the operator: "Flip this board before the next operation." Prevents ruined parts.
  • EB Deduction: 2mm edge banding on both sides means the raw cut is 596mm, not 600mm. Add tape = exactly 600mm. No creeping dimension error.
  • Inventory Priority: The optimizer checked your scrap pile first. 3 panels fit on off-cuts. You save a full sheet of expensive material.
This Would Have Prevented Your Last $500 Mistake

The software doesn't just generate cutlists. It engineers your project for manufacturing — catching errors before materials are cut.

The Math is Simple

One prevented mistake pays for years of software. Here is what workshop owners actually save:

Add dimensions, import and scale image underlays, switch to elevation view, and export 2D views as PNG for production communication.

Production Intelligence, Not Just Drawings

Most software creates drawings. We create manufacturing data that prevents mistakes before they reach your shop floor.

Built for cabinet shops, joinery workshops, CNC operators, and custom furniture manufacturers who need reliable cutlist generation, CNC boring data, DXF export, panel optimization, material inventory control, and production-ready cabinet engineering.

Integrated CAD Design Suite

A complete set of professional drafting tools including object snapping, wall editing, and image underlays to bridge the gap between room planning and production.

Parametric Engineering

Recalculates every panel based on construction type. Auto-splits oversized units into manufacturable sub-units.

System 32 CNC Boring

Hardware-specific patterns for Blum, Hettich, Grass, Accuride. Dual-face machining with flip indicators.

Dynamic Joinery

Groove depths, offsets, and EB deductions recalculated for any material thickness — not just 18mm.

Panel Optimization and Smart Nesting

Uses scrap inventory first. Respects grain direction. Multi-thickness projects sorted automatically.

Layered DXF Export for CNC Production

Separate CAD layers for cutting, boring, grooving. Production labels for every part included.

Cabinet BOQ, Hardware List, and Pricing

Real costs with machine waste offsets. Quote in minutes, not hours. Track hardware, materials, EB.

A Flexible Alternative to Template-Based Cabinet Software

CutList Generator Studio is built for workshops that need dynamic cabinet engineering, not only fixed template libraries.

Dynamic Construction Logic

Automatically recalculates panels, backs, grooves, partitions, drawers, and edge banding based on actual unit dimensions and material thickness.

Manufacturing-Ready Outputs

Generate cutlists, CNC boring data, layered DXF files, labels, BOQ pricing, and optimized cutting layouts from one workflow.

Built for Custom Cabinet Shops

Handle wardrobes, kitchens, corner units, sliding wardrobes, magic corners, fillers, appliances, drawer units, and custom partitions.

Built for Cabinet Shops, CNC Workshops, and Furniture Manufacturers

Whether you produce wardrobes, kitchens, closets, office furniture, or custom cabinetry, CutList Generator Studio turns 2D room layouts, cabinet dimensions, wall plans, and cabinet designs into production-ready manufacturing data.

Cabinet Makers

Create accurate cabinet cutlists, doors, drawers, backs, shelves, and edge banding reports without spreadsheet errors.

CNC Operators

Export boring data, grooves, Face A/B operations, DXF layers, and production labels for efficient machining.

Workshop Owners

Standardize engineering logic, reduce rework, quote faster, and prevent costly production mistakes.

Workshops That Stopped Losing Money

"The software caught that our 18mm back panel groove would snap on the 15mm material we actually had in stock. That would have been 12 ruined panels and a missed deadline."

ER
Elena Rodriguez Technical Office, Custom Interiors
Prevented $2,400 in scrap panels

"We cut a full kitchen in 2 days. Before CutList, that was a 2-week job with 3 people checking spreadsheets. Last month we did 4 kitchens with the same team."

MC
Marcus Chen Production Manager, Westwood Cabinetry
4x more projects, same team size

"When our senior engineer left, I was terrified. But CutList had captured all his logic — reveals, boring depths, construction methods. New hires are productive in a day."

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the software include a 2D cabinet layout editor?

+

Yes. CutList Generator Studio includes an AutoCAD-style 2D layout editor with plan view, elevation view, wall drawing, wall editing, door and window placement, object snap, grid snap, selection windows, grips, move, rotate, copy, dimensions, image underlay import, scaling, and PNG export for shop drawings.

How is this different from PolyBoard or Mozaik?

+

Those platforms rely on template libraries and fixed construction assumptions. CutList Generator dynamically recalculates engineering logic for each unique project, adapts to any material thickness, and handles custom hardware systems without pre-configuration. We don't force you into a template — we engineer your actual design.

Will it work with my CNC machine?

+

Yes. We export layered DXF files compatible with all major CAM software. Enterprise plans include native post-processors for Biesse, Homag, SCM, and others. The Face A/B flip indicators ensure your operator knows exactly when to flip panels.

Can I try it without uploading my own project?

+

Absolutely. We include a pre-loaded sample kitchen project with auto-splitting, System 32 boring, and edge banding deduction. You can see the full engineering output in 30 seconds without any setup. Just click "See It In 45 Seconds" above.

What happens when my engineer leaves?

+

The software captures your construction logic — reveals, boring depths, material deductions, assembly methods — and makes it repeatable. New hires follow the same process on day one. Your engineering knowledge becomes a system, not a person.

How long does it take to learn?

+

Most users are productive within a day. The interface is designed for furniture professionals, not software engineers. If you understand cabinet construction, you already understand the software. Training is available for teams that want deeper onboarding.

Is my data secure?

+

Yes. All data is protected using industry-standard security practices. Your designs, pricing logic, and material databases are private and never shared with third parties. We use encrypted connections and secure storage.
