A+W Residual Stock Manager:
Use residual plates better – reduce material costs!

What should you do with the residual plates when ever more expensive types of glass are being processed? Are investments in mechanical residual plate management systems required? A+W's new software offers an interesting, cost-effective solution.

The manual residual plate management system A+W Residual Stock Manager (RSM) uses harp racks and A/L racks for temporary storage of the valuable first cuts. Combined with the A+W Realtime Optimizer, the RSM achieves the best possible yield from these remnants. They are taken manually from the cutting table and placed on racks, where the RSM assigns rack and slot and saves these in the database. If the RSM discovers during a future optimization that a residual plate it manages can be used with good yield, it will incorporate this first cut into the optimization.
