CWX Workflow Tools

Cut Path Estimator

Upload a layered production PDF to identify camera marks, kiss-cut paths, thru-cut paths, vector objects, line segments, enclosed area, tool lifts, traverse movement, and estimated sheet cycle time.

Use a tool-path-only PDF. Remove artwork, images, proofs, and raster backgrounds before export. Hidden or unchecked artwork may still remain embedded in the PDF and can cause excessive memory use, lag, or browser failure. Visual content is ignored when detected.

Job structure

The uploaded test PDF is one 3-up row. The full benchmark job repeats that row seven times, producing 21 layout sets. Registration and production timing are calculated per row, then multiplied by the selected row count.

XY movement uses m/s. Acceleration uses G. Knife raise and lower speeds use mm/s. Dwell values use milliseconds. Thickness follows Display Units.
