Layout Logic

Understanding the heuristic behind the optimization.

Dutch Layout Strategy

Sometimes the box fits better if rotated 90 degrees. Our engine calculates both Standard (Grain-Vertical) and Rotated layouts simultaneously and serves you the winner.

  • Compares Area Utilization
  • Checks Grain Constraints
// Logic Check
const yieldStd = (sheetW / boxW) * (sheetH / boxL);
const yieldRot = (sheetW / boxL) * (sheetH / boxW);
if (yieldRot > yieldStd) return "Rotate";
