From opening to glass order
In a glass order, a small deduction mistake means hundreds of panes made again. For every opening, glass type, thickness, cavity, edge deductions and block positions must each be right.
The Glass Order Robot works out glass sizes from an opening list or a model with the system's deduction rules, groups them by glass type and totals m² and quantities. The target output is the glass order form, glass list and order → production → dispatch tracking.

The robot takes files as they are; the output comes out in the form the workshop, purchasing and site teams use directly.
