Abstract

Packing problem should consider three factors of pattern value,cutting techniques and computation time.A new deterministic algorithm is proposed for generating the optimal two-segment cutting patterns for rectangular blanks based on the homogenous block.This paper's algorithm is appropriate for the shearing and punching process.Both simple patterns can be obtained and value-to-time can be improved.This algorithm uses a dynamic programming to generate optimal homogenous blocks,solves one-dimensional knapsack problems to obtain the homogenous block layouts on the sections and the section layout on segments,and optimally selects two segments to compose the cutting pattern.The algorithm is tested through three group classic problems,and compares with three famous algorithms.The computational results indicate that this paper's algorithm is better than the above four algorithms.The algorithm is efficient in improving material usage,and the computation time is reasonable.
