Abstract

A method for cutting machining of a plate-shaped workpiece, including determining the position of the support points either by measuring or inferring the position of the support points and/or the relative position of the workpiece, establishing starting-point-free regions, establishing end-point-free regions, establishing starting-point-free and end-point-free regions depending on the inferred or measured position of the support points and/or the relative position of the workpiece, establishing a grid of possible starting points and end points, omitting the starting-point-free and end-point-free regions determined in advance, either calculating a torque in a stabilizing and/or tilting direction or calculating a tilt height and/or a tilt depth for each of the points on the grid, setting a priority of points on the grid, transmitting the priority of points to a route planning means of the cutting head, and selecting one of the points on the grid and carrying out the cutting machining.
