Steel Plate Weight Calculator

This weighs a plate blank as it comes off the table rather than as it leaves the mill. A rectangle can have its holes deducted, a disc or a ring is weighed from its diameters, and every shape also reports the cut length a torch or laser has to travel. The third option nests rectangular blanks on a standard sheet, tries the blank both ways round, allows for the kerf each cut destroys and returns the sheets needed, the sheet utilisation and the weight of the drop-off you pay for but do not ship. Eight material densities are built in and any of them can be overridden to match a supplier table.
