What's new in the system — updates and improvements.

#106 Recognition of capsule-shaped grooves 10.08.2026

An elongated groove with rounded semicircular ends (the “capsule” shape, also known as a “stadium”) is a common element in projects: for profile handles, ventilation slots, and recesses for fittings.

What changed

Now this shape is recognized automatically when a project is imported. The system calculates by itself:

  • the length and width of the groove;
  • the center and orientation (horizontal or vertical);
  • the machining depth.

Previously the shape was processed as an arbitrary set of arcs, which complicated display and calculation. Both common construction variants are supported: when each rounded end consists of a pair of quarter arcs, and when the end is defined by a single half arc.

Result

The capsule cutout is displayed correctly in the editor, priced correctly, and goes to the machine as a ready program — with no manual touch-up after import.

#105 Smart overload protection: real customers no longer get blocked 09.08.2026

The platform's protection against automated scanners and bots now distinguishes real users from robots more precisely.

What has changed

  • Working users are beyond suspicion. Active work with the platform is no longer taken for an attack — false blocks of clients working in a normal mode have been eliminated. Clients going online through a shared network no longer interfere with each other either.
  • A clear message instead of a technical error. If a restriction is triggered anyway, the user sees a neat window with a timer until the restriction is lifted, and on a regular browser navigation — a clear notification page.

Bots and scanners meanwhile remain under strict control — the protection has not weakened, it has become more targeted.

Result

Real clients work without false blocks, and if a restriction does happen — it is immediately clear what happened and when access will return.

#94 Top-up nesting: place unplaced parts without recalculating the whole order 09.08.2026

The editor now has a “Cut remaining” button: if some parts remain unplaced after manual edits, the system recalculates the cutting layout only for them.

How it works

  • The remainder cutting is calculated separately for each material — finished sheets of other materials are left untouched.
  • Until the remainder cutting is done, saving a layout with unplaced parts is blocked — with a clear hint about what needs to be done.
  • The calculation is automatically routed to the appropriate cutting engine depending on the production settings.

Error protection

Scenarios that led to a part-count mismatch error after remainder cutting have been closed: an outdated remainder-cutting result can no longer overwrite a fresh manual save of the layout.

Result

Manual layout editing and automation complement each other: the technologist adjusts what is needed, and the system carefully places the rest — with no risk of losing or duplicating a part.

#104 Correct part image on the label 08.08.2026

For parts machined on both sides, the image on the label was sometimes printed mirrored relative to the actual part — the operator could confuse the sides.

What changed

The label now always shows the original geometry of the part — exactly as it looks in the order. The machine program data is fully preserved: the change affects label printing only.

Result

The label matches the part one to one — less risk of mixing up the sides during edge banding and drilling of double-sided parts.

#93 "Edit cutting layout" — now in the platform's own editor 08.08.2026

The “Edit Cutting Layout” button on the order card no longer leads to an external third-party service — it now opens the platform’s own cutting layout editor.

What this changes for the manager

  • Editing the cutting layout happens within a single system, under your own authorization — no switching to an external contractor and no manual reconciliation of project codes.
  • The edited result is saved in the same order.
  • All features of the new editor are available: drag-and-drop of parts, additional cutting, offcut merging, and layout check before saving.

Result

The full order workflow — from placement to cutting layout edits — is now contained within a single system.

#103 Labels for all sheet remnants — including unusable ones 07.08.2026

Previously, labels were printed only for parts, while unused areas of the sheet remained unmarked. Now everything that comes off the machine gets labelled.

What gets printed

  • A usable offcut gets an offcut label — with a number and dimensions. It can be returned to stock right away and used in future orders.
  • An unusable scrap gets a large warning sticker reading “DO NOT USE” with a number and size — the machine operator immediately sees what goes to waste.

Fragments that are too small are filtered out automatically and get no labels.

Offcuts from manual nesting are exported too

If a cutting layout was created or adjusted manually, its offcuts previously did not make it into the labels of the exported machine programs — they had to be marked by hand. Now manual offcuts are recognised just like automatic ones, and their labels go to the machine export together with the rest.

Result

The offcut stock is filled with correctly labelled material, and waste does not get mixed up with usable offcuts — regardless of whether the sheet was cut automatically or manually.

#92 Virtual machines: CNC programs without your own machine park 07.08.2026

A new mode has arrived: “run a part on a machine you don't own”.

Test drive for future equipment

You define a set of virtual machines — single-sided and double-sided, with different combinations of top and bottom cutters (15 preset configurations). The same part is run through the standard production pipeline on each of them. The output is an archive with per-machine folders, ready-to-use programs and links to an interactive preview.

This lets you see, before buying the equipment, how the part will fit on a specific machine and compare which cutter setup handles your products best. Virtual machines exist only for the duration of the run and do not clutter the equipment list.

The account has a dedicated page for this: the machine configuration is described in a clear form — cutters (diameter, type, maximum depth), drilling groups with available sides and depths, saws, double-sided capability. The initial configuration is filled in automatically based on the actual holes and grooves of the selected part, the settings are saved, and after the run a link to the result is issued.

Programs for customers without their own machines

In August the mode became a working scenario: a platform customer without their own machinery receives sawing and CNC programs generated on virtual equipment. The set of cutters and drills is taken from the tools the customer configured in their personal account. The main machine program formats are supported: G-code, TPA, SCM Xilog, MPR, Biesse, KDT, SCX.

Result

The platform prepares production programs even for those who cut and drill off-site — and gives those choosing a machine an honest preview before the deal.

#102 Email: messages get delivered and look on-brand 06.08.2026

A series of improvements to the platform’s email subsystem.

Emails on behalf of the company

Companies with individual branding send emails to customers from their own mail account, without any mention of the platform’s technical domain. Emails are not flagged as suspicious by mail services and reliably reach the recipient.

Deliverability monitoring

Email deliverability is monitored automatically: the platform tracks mail services’ reports on delivery and spoofing, making it possible to spot problems with mail delivery to customers in time.

The “do not reply” note

All automatic emails carry a translated note “Do not reply to this email” — in the subject and in the body. Previously, customers replied to automated mailings and their replies went to an unmonitored mailbox; now it is clear where to write to get an answer.

Result

The email channel has become reliable: branded emails get through, deliverability is monitored, and customer replies are not lost.

#91 Personal account updates 06.08.2026

A series of improvements to everyday work in the client account.

Order information

  • The “Order information” window now shows “Total” rows for materials and for services, plus a grand total for the whole table.
  • The platform's cutting maps open from the same window — no need to look for them separately.
  • The client's comment on the order can be edited via the pencil icon.

Order list

The filter now has “Search” and “Reset filter” buttons; the reset also clears the search fields — you can return to the full list in one click.

Access and communication

  • A “Technical support” item has been added to the side menu — contact support in one click.
  • The company list now includes a “Personal production account”: if it is not linked yet, the link is created in one click and you go straight into the account. The trial-version banner explains what this account is for.
  • A support request about a specific part is now firmly tied to that part — the project is saved automatically before sending, so support sees the current state.
  • Unused phone fields and redundant communication channels have been removed from the forms — less noise in the profile and the order card.

Result

Key information — totals, maps, comments — is available right from the order card, and routine actions are now several clicks shorter.

#90 3D part view with all operations 05.08.2026

Every part in the list and in the editor now has a 3D view: the cube button opens an exact 3D model of the part with all performed operations — drillings, grooves, cutouts, contour milling, cuts, postforming and applied edge banding.

True geometry

The model is built from the actual contour of the part, not from a rectangle. Open through grooves and cuts really slice through the workpiece and the edge banding — exactly as it will be in production.

Viewing tools

  • Free rotation with the mouse, quick views from all sides, an angle panel.
  • A transparency slider and a “cut workpiece” mode: the part can be sectioned along a selected operation to see its depth.
  • Overall dimensions and dimension lines with readable callouts.
  • Measuring ruler: click a plane, then points — and get the distances in millimetres.

Working with operations

  • Each operation has a pop-up card with its parameters: type, side, compensation, offsets, edge banding, tool.
  • An interactive milling contour with trajectory “playback” and a separate drawing of the operation.
  • The operation list is grouped by type, side and diameter, with a filter and highlighting of the sides that have machining.

Export and sharing

  • Model export to DXF — a flat 2D contour or a full 3D model.
  • The “Share 3D” button generates a link with a QR code to a public viewing page: it opens on a phone, without signing in, in 11 languages.

Double-thickness worktops are displayed correctly with batten joining, and the part list now shows the thickness.

Result

A part can be examined and checked before production the way it previously could only be after: every operation is visible in 3D, with dimensions and parameters.
