Keep using AutoCAD. WoodPrep simply adds production automation.
Works with existing AutoCAD drawings. No redrawing required.
Transform your AutoCAD drawings into production-ready cutting lists, material summaries, hardware summaries, and Biesse CNC programs. No redrawing required—works with both existing AutoCAD drawings and new WoodPrep projects.
Who are you?
From a simple cutting list to full CNC program generation
Generate complete cabinets from overall dimensions. Panels, doors, drawers, and all required hardware are created automatically. Configure overlay or inset doors, cabinet construction (side-running or top/bottom-running panels), and screw or Minifix joints.
Generate Excel cutting lists directly from your 3D model. Each part can have different edge banding on each edge, along with individual quantity, grain direction, and custom notes (e.g. curved parts, oversized parts, or DXF export). The generated cutting list is production-ready and ready for manufacturing.
Automatically positions hinge cups, shelf pin holes, Minifix connectors, and Blum drawer hardware according to your manufacturing rules. Every position remains fully editable whenever custom placement is required.
Generate production-ready BPP programs for Biesse CNC machining centers directly from AutoCAD. Freely define the machining orientation of each part, and automatically generate DXF files for curved parts using a simple part note. BPP generation is configured and optimized for your specific machine during setup.
WoodPrep is not limited to cabinets or WoodPrep-generated projects. Generate production-ready cutting lists from existing AutoCAD drawings or create new projects for wall panels, suspended ceilings, shop fittings, decorative panels, furniture components, and much more.
Analyze any AutoCAD drawing in seconds and generate a complete summary of materials and hardware. From cabinets and wall panels to suspended ceilings and commercial interiors, every assigned material—including glass—is counted automatically and ready for ordering.
WoodPrep guides you through every selected part one by one. Identical parts are grouped automatically, quantities are calculated for you, and every processed part is added to the cutting list — helping prevent omissions and duplicate work.
No CAD programming knowledge required
Copy the DLL to your AutoCAD plugin folder. No additional installation required.
Use the cabinet generator or draw from dimensions — the plugin builds the 3D model.
One command generates the Excel cutting list or full Biesse CNC program — your choice.
Excel cutting list goes to the panel saw. BPP file goes straight to the machine.

Not a software company — a woodworking professional
WoodPrep was developed by a woodworking professional to solve real production challenges—not as a generic software project.
Every feature exists because it saves time, reduces mistakes, or simplifies everyday manufacturing.
Developed through years of real production work with AutoCAD and Biesse CNC machines, WoodPrep continues to evolve based on practical experience and customer feedback.
