New Features

New Chamfer Tool Type

A new Chamfer Tool type has been added to the following tool pathing algorithms:

• Pocketing (Island, Hatch, …)
• Threading
• Routing Offsets

. Chamfer type selection in the hatch fill tool path settings

Using conic tools, users can now easily remove sharp edges or add a larger chamfer by selecting this new tool type.

Key details:

• Minimum depths must be set to achieve specific chamfer widths.
• Depth can be increased beyond the minimum to avoid cutting with the tool tip and instead engaging the material edge with the side of the bit

. Chamfer width setting under the hatch cut parameters

Ball nose tools can also be selected to remove burs for smoother results and to avoid the need for additional processing.

Final Pass Feed Rate for Bridge Cut-Off

The Final Pass Feed Rate now also applies to the Automatic Bridge Cut-Off option.

• This feed rate determines how quickly the bridges are milled away at the end of the job.
• If no final feed rate is specified, the system will fall back to the default feed rate.

Click and drag to import files

Users can now import (readable) files by simply clicking and dragging them into the interface.

Tool changer accessible from tool library

Users can now directly access the tool changer from the tool library menu (F5)

Enhanced rendering

• The drawing speed while zooming and moving in the perspective view has been improved
• Improved drawing speed of imported STL files
• Improved rendering speed of meshes in rendered preview mode (non-perspective view)

Fixed bugs

• Island fill’s fine tool path does not complete the tool path correctly in constrained area
• Open offset – editing of parameters is not applied
• Cleanup & detect duplicates dialog contains mixed up tabs
• Image placeholders on labels would get a black background when rotated
