április 22, 2024
SprutCAM Tech is excited to announce the launch of Update 17.0.14 for SprutCAM X and SprutCAM X Robot featuring more than 100 changes.
This update enhances various functionalities:
Profile Mode for Lathe Operations Enhancement
In Job Assignment for lathe operations, users can now adjust the chamfer angle in Profile cycle based on the 3D model, an improvement from the previous limitation of only being able to change the chamfer size.
User Experience Enhancements:
- Updated pop-up hints for Lathe machining, Engraving, Pocketing, and Chamfer machining operations.
- Improved functioning of pinned Snapshots when clicking Clear All in Project Snapshots manager.
- Enhanced overall performance of SprutCAM X and SprutCAM X Robot.
- New feature, which allows users to save tutorials on post processor development as an archive file, enabling offline access.
- Added Machine setup template for Swiss-type machines.
Technical Improvements:
Significant improvements have been made in the recent update, addressing some challenges across the software. Notably, enhancements include fixing spline handling issues and refining the operation of vectors in 6D contour tasks. The update also resolves critical bugs such as the mishandling of network licenses and the visualization of 3D models in the tool library. The software now correctly updates fixtures during Rotate and Shift operations and eliminates previous issues with machine node saving in MachineMaker. Additionally, it resolves a recurrent error during the trajectory calculation for Cladding operations.
Existing SprutCAM X and SprutCAM X Robot users with an active software maintenance contract (SMC) have been notified about the new release and can easily upgrade to benefit from these enhancements.
