SAi releases EnRoute 23

SAi International has introduced EnRoute 23 to expand the capabilities of users and take the software to new application sectors.

This is the first major upgrade since EnRoute 7 and along with more than 20 new features, SAi’s EnRoute 23 CAD/CAM design software is the first iteration of a new product strategy – annual updates to deliver more features and refinements to users on a basis. These users typically span those in signmaking and fabrication companies, as well as CNC woodworking and nested-based manufacturing users. 

Among the most notable new features of EnRoute 23 are:

–       Setup Manager, which enables users to configure the menus and tool bars of EnRoute 23 to display the tools necessary for specific jobs, giving a clean, custom dashboard for ease of use. These custom configurations can be saved for repeat jobs.

–       New profile tools.  SAi has also added sample tools to the tool library to enable users to quickly begin using them. In addition, DXF and PDF files can now be used to define tools by users.

–       Simulation of profile tools, which enables users to ensure that results are what they expect before cutting by displaying a graphic representation of the toolpath.

–       Corner fine capability is built into Hatch, Island, and Spiral fills and enables the selection of smaller radius (ball-nose) end mill tools to achieve sharp internal corners.

There is also no-lift tool pathing, colour and centerline vectorisations and improved nesting capabilities with cut time estimates

EnRoute 23 is available for purchase or via subscription.
