Limassol, Cyprus, January 30, 2026 — ENCY 2.7 is now available, delivering 120 changes across workflow improvements and bug fixes. This release strengthens additive workflows with the new Power parameter for Non-planar slicing, adds support for new robot families, and improves everyday usability — especially when reporting issues to technical support.

Feed and power control for cladding operations

ENCY 2.7 expands process control for additive workflows by introducing the Power parameter in Non-planar slicing. Power is now supported in two operations: Cladding 5D and Non-planar slicing.

For better surface quality in corner regions, you can also scale power as a percentage of the nominal value when cladding in corners. Together with Feed, this gives you a more practical way to tune deposition: adjust Power + Feed to balance bead formation and surface finish.

Usability improvements

New technical-support message window. We redesigned the support message window and expanded its functionality. You can now take a screenshot from the application interface, and it is automatically attached to the file list sent to technical support.

New robots. ENCY 2.7 adds support for new robot families:

  • Tecman, JHY, EVS, HANS, HSR, Fairino

The robot library was also updated for:

  • Omron, ABB, AUBO, Borunto, Dobot, Estun, Effort, Epson, uFactory

Check fixtures. For 2D Contouring and Hole machining, you can now disable collision checking with fixtures — useful when drilling through a part and substrate is intentional and safe in your process.

Other editor/workflow refinements. This release also includes:

  • Arrow-key (Up/Down) navigation through CL-data rows while the Machine control panel is open
  • Updated smart hints for Cladding 5D and Non-planar slicing
  • Updated mill operation illustrations in the New Operation window

Stability, simulation, and quality fixes

ENCY 2.7 includes a broad set of stability and correctness fixes across projects, simulation, UI, CAD import, and automation. Highlights include:

  • Non-planar slicing: fixed issues with the starting tool point parameter.
  • Swarf operation: fixed extend/trim passes for closed contours and the two-curve calculation method.
  • Simulation: fixed saving simulation results to .stl, improved simulation performance, and fixed cases where simulation speed could trigger false collision detection.
  • Projects & stability: fixed inability to restore the last saved project after an unexpected crash, and fixed issues preventing saving a project to cloud services (e.g., Microsoft OneDrive).
  • Machine/axis behavior: fixed errors when working with the 4th axis in Rotary operations; fixed incorrect workpiece position detection for mill-turn machines; fixed automatic rotation of the workpiece coordinate system for Swiss type lathes.
  • CAD & import: fixed CAD module errors that caused project opening problems; fixed STEP import when external borders are invalid.
  • Editors & UI: fixed hotkey conflicts in Intellectual object selection on 3D models, dialogs hiding behind the main window, and multiple visual issues (including the AI Assistant window and nonstandard monitor scales). 
  • Fixed freezes when repeatedly switching in the Addin Manager.
  • Fixed issues in MachineMaker, fixed errors in ENCY Tuner, fixed visual issues in Feature Based Machining (FBM) settings and for Wire EDM machining.
  • Installation & licensing: fixed installer issues, antivirus conflicts during installation, and license switching problems.

How to get the update: If you have an active software maintenance contract (SMC), ENCY 2.7 is available through the standard update channels (the system updater, or via your dealer / technical support).
