General updates
- Added edge-highlighting for Deburring operations in the Program View. Selecting a Deburring operation now visually highlights the corresponding machined edges in the 3D viewer, improving clarity and spatial context. Supports multiple selections and handles curved, slotted, and angled surfaces
- Improved user feedback when sending toolpaths to the CAM package. A loading indicator now appears after selecting 'Send to CAM Package', providing clear visual feedback during processing to address perceived delays and improve system visibility.
Tool management
- Fixed issue where updates in My Tools weren’t automatically reflected in CAM Assist until CAM Assist was refreshed. These changes are now synced automatically.
- Ability to edit the tool number directly from the Assembly properties tab. The field is now editable, numeric-only, and saved alongside other tool properties.
- Added “Enable/Disable All” control for the Use Tool column in tool libraries. Users can now toggle tool usage for all visible tools at once, with changes applied relative to current table filters and across all pages.
- Updated tool library icons to clearly distinguish Preferred tool assemblies from Favourite tools. Preferred tools now use a dedicated bookmark-heart icon, improving visual clarity and interpretation.
Tool import
- 'Best guess' defaulting for tool parameters on imported tool assemblies for improved tool readiness. Suggested values are listed beneath fields, and can be implemented with a single click.
- The material dropdown is now multi-select in the Import Shop Configuration workflow and tool library import workflow. Users can now assign multiple stock materials per uploaded file, with nested ISO categories.
- Improved tool import handling for duplicate item references across multiple files. When tools with identical IDs are imported, the system now assigns unique identifiers automatically, ensuring all tools are successfully saved without conflicts.
- Added automatic holder assignment when importing solid round tools without assemblies. Tools (excluding face mills and inserts) now receive default holders sized by cutting diameter, ensuring they’re usable in CAM Assist. Users are notified on import and can review and even undo/remove default holders.
- Fixed an issue preventing
.toolsfiles from being imported via Autodesk Fusion’s shop configuration workflow. Imports now correctly process valid tools and report any dropped entries separately
Cutting parameters
- Extended constraint sliders to display current feeds and speeds, with visual indicators and warnings when values fall outside recommended bounds. Improved distinction between current and recommended Cutting Parameter Explorer (CPE) values and refined UI interactions for hover, locking, and overlapping states.
- Tabbed view to Cutting Parameter Explorer when setting Presets, matching the Program view CPE layout. Users can now assign ramping and cutting feeds and speeds for roughing operations (adaptive and pocket), with ramping values correctly stored in the presets table.
- Improved display precision for Imperial CPE values. Non-zero values are now correctly shown with full decimal accuracy (e.g. 0.00393701 instead of 0). Applies across all supported operations.
- Updated data flow from Preset context to CPE to correctly display user-defined cutting parameters. Current feeds and speeds are now shown on sliders when launching CPE.
- Improved validation and messaging when running CAM Assist with session machines or materials. CPE now correctly informs users when required properties (e.g. spindle power, torque, or ISO category) are missing, instead of showing CPE as unsupported.
