SprutCAM X and SprutCAM X Robot update 17.0.15 have been released from SprutCAM Tech. This update introduces 99 changes containing bug fixes and workflow improvements.

There is now added support for Kawasaki robots (BX300L model and others) in SprutCAM X and MachineMaker. Also, look for support for 27 models of ROKAE robots, which has been added to MachineMaker. Kinematic models of these robots are now also available in the online robot library.

The company increased the speed of machining report generation with sketch output: optimized generation of sketches, which resulted in a reduction of machining report generation time. It is noticeable when generating reports in a bulk group.

SprutCAM Tech has also updated the smart hints for Lathe part off, 5D by meshes, turn takeover, 3D helical and Scallop operations.

Fixed Bugs

Fixed a critical error when recalculating an operation with the workpiece being taken into consideration.

Fixed errors when editing 4th and 6th axis limits for industrial robots.

Fixed hang when importing step files.

Fixed axes collision in the standard project that comes with SprutCAM X.

Fixed calculation of 5D by meshes operation in the standard project that comes with SprutCAM X.

Fixed errors when working with polar interpolation on lathes.

Fixed errors in the collision avoidance option.

Fixed search filter for online library in MachineMaker.

Fixed a critical error when importing a 3D model.

Fixed bugs with letter visualization in text editing window for Model mode.

Fixed link to TCP calibration app in Google Play.

Fixed bugs for the safe surface level option for adaptive machining strategy.
