V6 workflow: Upload a kitchen plan, analyse the drawing and cabinet schedule, rule-validate recognised cabinets automatically, review only exceptions, then approve before manufacturing data is generated. AI interpretation never overrides Woodology construction rules.
No plan selected
PDF exports are preferred. Detected cabinets will be mapped to the Woodology cabinet library and flagged for confirmation where confidence is insufficient.

Production check: these are editable planning defaults. Confirm the exact supplier product code, runner length and drilling instructions before releasing drawer boxes to production.
Branded metal-box systems add hardware and labour only. Wooden-drawer profiles can generate MFC drawer-box parts for OptiCutter.

Bespoke Furniture Builder
Wardrobes / media walls / TV units: enter the finished external cabinet size. V5.6 uses the Woodology furniture construction method automatically: top and base full width; sides between top/base; carcass panel depth = overall depth minus the depth allowance; shelf width = overall width minus 36 mm; shelf depth = carcass depth minus 5 mm; 18 mm back applied to the rear. Doors/fronts can be entered at exact sizes.
Exact doors / fronts
Add exactly the front sizes you want. These dimensions are not recalculated by the cabinet engine.
Bespoke Extras & Accessories
Add plinths, top infills, fillers, scribes, end panels or any custom panel at the exact cut size. They flow into the same cut list, costing and OptiCutter export.

Machining & Routing Standards
These are Woodology defaults. Standard cabinets inherit them automatically; only exceptions need a cabinet override.
Uform Ordering
Exact-code workflow: Uform order lines must use the exact product code from the Uform price list. A line with no verified code is clearly flagged and cannot be mistaken for a confirmed Uform item.

Integrated Grain-Aware Cut Optimiser
Fixed sheet-grain nesting: the whole sheet grain runs in one direction. The optimiser may rotate a physical panel only when that rotation preserves its required grain relationship; it never rotates the grain independently of the panel.
Sheet grain runs left to right along sheet length.Every grained panel on the map uses this same sheet direction.

Production & OptiCutter
Locked export rule: every standard Woodology panel is exported with its intended grain dimension as the first dimension. OptiCutter therefore receives h for standard parts. A deliberately horizontal-grain door/front receives v.
OptiCutter: import only the files ending OptiCutter_SHEET_PLAN.csv into a Sheet/Panel Cutting Plan. Edging is shown in the separate printable workshop report below.
↔ Across cabinet width↕ Top to bottomOptiCutter: h = Lengthwise, v = Crosswise

Edging
Grain test: standard parts must export h; only a deliberately horizontal-grain door or drawer front exports v. Material-group values are deliberately blank.
Export safeguard: blank CSV files are blocked, and the exporter and validator now share one grain rule.
v3.5 export stability:
one CSV per exact material name; no material-group matching; stock grain and panel grain use one central rule; panels that cannot fit the selected sheet are blocked before download.
Machining Override
Standard rules are already active. Change only what is different for this cabinet.
Cabinet Configurator
Fronts, internals, construction and exact Uform ordering for this cabinet.
For side-by-side doors enter widths. For stacked drawers or mixed fronts enter heights. Gaps are deducted automatically.
Layout valid
Internal & construction
Use half/no/opening for sinks, oven housings and integrated fridges. These settings change the manufacturing cut list, not the selling price.
Uform front
When Uform is selected, the exact price-list code is required. You can override the default front here.
Configure drawer unit
Choose the drawer system before the cabinet is added to the job.
Suitable
Edit edging
Tick the physical edges to be banded. Length edges use the part Length dimension; width edges use the Width dimension.
