Different parameters may be set against each device on the factory floor that will allow chrome to determine how to process bar on that machine and what types of bar can be processed on any given machine.
To access the configuration function from Cut Optimiser, right click a device in the production lines grid and select "Maintain Device"
Device Capacities
Against each device different processing metrics can be stored which determine how a device will process tags for the specified bar.
This includes information in addition to how many bars the device will process simultaneously, feed and loading rates along with arbitrary timing values to determine how long work will take to pass through the machine.
If the device does not include an entry for a particular bar type (In the above case N12 bar) you will not be able to move production work to this device for N12 type work.
