Parts Library
Upload a CSV of your standard parts — strips, master coils, and slit coils — to create a reusable reference library. Browse and filter parts, then load them directly into any optimizer job.
Overview
The Parts Library is a persistent catalog of your standard parts. Instead of typing widths and item numbers every time, you upload them once and reference them from any job. The library is saved to your account, so it follows you across browsers and devices whenever you sign in.
Three part types are supported:
Each type appears with its own color badge and can be filtered separately.
CSV Format
The Parts Library accepts a CSV with four columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| item_number | Your part identifier — SKU, part number, or any unique label. |
| type | One of: strip, master_coil, or slit_coil. |
| width | Part width in your selected unit. Required for all types. |
| length | Part length. required for strip type only. |

Browsing & Filtering
Use the filter buttons above the parts table to show only certain types:
The table shows item number, type, width, and length for each part. Clicking a column header sorts the table by that column.
Using Parts in Jobs
Parts in the library can be loaded directly into optimizer jobs. In the Parts Library results table, each row has an Actions column. Click the action button to load that part's dimensions into the active optimizer field.
Managing the Library
Two management buttons are available in the left panel:
| Button | Action |
|---|---|
| Clear Library | Removes all parts from the library. Cannot be undone — keep your source CSV file as a backup. |
| Export CSV | Downloads the current library contents as a CSV file — useful for backup or editing in a spreadsheet. |
