Production Management
Plan, Schedule and Monitor Cutting Production
Plan cutting jobs, optimize machine workloads and monitor production with AlmaCAM Workshop Scheduling.
Designed to extend the CAD/CAM workflow from nesting and NC programming into production planning, the solution provides a centralized view of cutting jobs, machine availability and workshop activity.
Schedule jobs across multiple cutting machines, assign work to available production capacity, reorganize priorities and manage planned or unexpected machine downtime. Real-time production status helps teams track jobs from scheduled to in progress and completed.
By connecting AlmaCAM CAD/CAM preparation with workshop scheduling and production monitoring, manufacturers can improve machine utilization, reduce idle time and maintain better control over cutting operations.
Key features
View all cutting jobs, machine workloads and production schedules in one centralized planning environment.
Schedule jobs at a specific time or assign them to the earliest available machine slot based on production capacity.
Plan and balance cutting jobs across multiple 2D and tube-cutting machines to improve workshop utilization.
Track jobs through clear production statuses—from planned and pending to in progress and completed.
Account for maintenance, breakdowns, breaks, holidays and recurring unavailability to maintain a realistic production schedule.
Benefits
Use cases
Plan and distribute jobs across multiple laser, plasma, oxyfuel, waterjet or tube-cutting machines from one centralized schedule.
Reorganize schedules quickly when priorities, delivery dates or urgent production requirements change.
Identify overloaded and underutilized machines and redistribute suitable jobs to improve overall workshop capacity.
Maintain realistic production schedules by accounting for planned maintenance, machine breakdowns, breaks, holidays and recurring unavailability.
Identify gaps and idle machine slots, then schedule suitable cutting jobs to maximize productive machine time.
Track planned, pending, in-progress and completed jobs for clearer visibility and better control of workshop production.
