ERA GOLD · Palermo, Huila
Plan the cut.
Use your offcuts.
Ask for the rest.
A planner for your own workshop: finished parts become blanks, blanks are cut from the offcuts you already have before new bar or plate, and only the shortfall becomes a quote request to ERA GOLD.

Four steps on your own bench
- 01
List the parts
Alloy, profile, finished size and how many. The app works out each blank.
- 02
Plan the cut
Offcuts from your rack first, then new bar or plate, with kerf and yield.
- 03
Ask for the rest
The shortfall in kilograms per alloy, with questions for ERA GOLD, by share, email or a call.
- 04
Mark it as cut
Used offcuts leave the rack; leftovers worth keeping come back with a tag.
Worked example
Brass C36000, 1 in round, kerf 2 mm
The rack holds offcut R-0003 of 640 mm. The job needs 14 blanks: 8 × 180 mm and 6 × 95 mm. The offcut goes first; one new 3,66 m bar takes the rest.
- Yield by length
- 94,3 %
- Parts
- 8,66 kg
- To buy
- 1 bar, 15,76 kg
- Back on the rack
- 2168 mm, 9,34 kg
Or, if ERA GOLD confirms it cuts to length: 1492 mm in pieces, 6,43 kg. All weights are theoretical.
Leftovers are stock, not waste
When you mark a plan as cut in the app, the offcuts you used leave the rack and every leftover longer than your minimum comes back with a new tag to write on the metal. The next job draws on it first.
