Automating the kitting process brings many advantages. It not only replaces manual labour by automation and significantly reduces material waste, automated kitting also unlocks many other opportunities to maximise ply cutting and lamination output whilst reducing production costs. In combination with advanced nesting software it opens the way to more efficient nesting, or even dynamic
