A system for positioning a workpiece in an optimized position wherein a marking device places a mark on the workpiece prior to the workpiece passing through an optimizer, the optimizer determining the optimized position of the workpiece while the orientation of the mark is identified by a first identifying means as a point of reference such that the workpiece may be positioned in the optimized position by rotating the workpiece relative to the orientation of the mark. A turning mechanism rotates the workpiece to position it in the optimized position. A second and third identifying means continually identifies at predetermined time intervals the orientation of the mark while the workpiece is being rotated. A processor in transmittable communication with the optimizer, the first identifying means, and the second identifying means compares the real time orientation of the mark with the optimized position to determine if the workpiece is in the optimized position. The processor transmits information to the turning mechanism to control the rotation of the workpiece such that the optimized position of the workpiece may be achieved and maintained.
