OPTIGRAMI Version 2.0

Return to the Software page.

OPTIGRAMI (Optimum Grade Mix) is a DOS-based computer program that determines the least-cost grade mix required to produce a given cutting order for clear parts from rough lumber of known grades in a crosscut-first rough mill operation. OPTIGRAMI includes optimization for species graded under standard National Hardwood Lumber Association grade rules, as well as yellow-poplar and black walnut. Output information includes gross volume of lumber required in each lumber grade, estimated total production cost, board footage of parts generated, percent yield, and range of costs within each lumber grade for which the given solution is valid.
