EN 1090 factory production control needs every cut piece traceable back to its parent material. This register captures that link - the mark, the section and size, and the material each piece was cut from - on a single sheet.

Cutting Register Template

A single-sheet cutting register for recording every item cut in the workshop - the ID or mark applied to the piece, its section and size, the quantity and length, and the parent material it was cut from. One line per cut gives you a clear record that ties each finished part back to the stock it came from.

For structural steelwork, traceability of cut material is a core part of a BS EN 1090 Factory Production Control (FPC) system and supports CE / UKCA marking. It also meets the identification and traceability requirements of a quality management system aligned with ISO 9001 (clause 8.5.2), so the same sheet works for both.

Built for EN 1090 Factory Production Control and ISO 9001

The register captures the traceability detail an FPC system and a quality management system both need:

• A unique ID or mark linking each cut piece to the job and the finished assembly
• The section and size of the material, so the specification is recorded at the point of cutting
• Quantity and length cut, for material control and offcut management
• The parent material each piece was cut from, giving traceability back to the mill certificate or stock
• A final inspection sign-off to confirm the cutting has been checked

What's Included in this Cutting Register

The form is set out as a single register sheet so a run of cutting can be logged and signed off in one place:

• Header details - completed by, job reference and date
• Cutting table - ID / mark, section and size, quantity, length and the parent material each piece was cut from
• Notes - space for anything relevant to the cutting run
• Final inspection - name and date confirming the cutting has been inspected

Who Needs a Cutting Register?

Any fabricator, steelwork contractor or workshop that cuts material to size and needs to prove where each piece came from. It is a standard record for businesses working to BS EN 1090 for CE / UKCA marking of structural steel and aluminium, and for anyone running a quality management system to ISO 9001 that has to demonstrate identification and traceability of product.

Pairs with the Declaration of Performance

Where cut and fabricated material is CE / UKCA marked, the cutting register feeds the traceability behind the F-Q42 Declaration of Performance - the EN 1090 statement of declared performance for the finished product.
