LIMASSOL, Cyprus, Nov 26, 2025 – The ENCY 2.5 release includes 130 updates that improve workflow efficiency and stability across machining, simulation and platform components.

Painting Simulation: Faster Visual Feedback

  • The part renders during painting simulation, so one can see what’s painted and what isn’t without toggling part visibility.
  • By default, the simulation shows which areas of the model will be painted (no paint-film thickness gradient). To evaluate thickness, enable “Verify compare” and set a color gradient against a reference.

Automatic Face Selection: Two One-Click Helpers

With a closed contour pre-selected, right-click a face on that contour to access:

  • Enclosed faces: Selects all faces inside the closed contour (e.g., the faces of a profile pocket).

  • Outer adjacent faces: Selects faces adjacent to the closed contour edges (e.g., edge fillets around the contour).

These options reduce multi-face picking down to a single action and reduce selection errors on pockets and blends.

Swarf: Automatic Axial-Pass Calculation

Users can set axial passes by step size or pass count. ENCY distributes passes and keeps spacing uniform over the 3D model, improving finish consistency while preserving control over cycle time.

Usability & Workflow Improvements

  • Hints: Refreshed for Pencil, Swarf, Non-planar Slicing, and Threading (OD/ID) operations.
  • CLD: Added Number of starts for the G92 threading cycle.
  • Downloads: Page includes links to offline installers.
  • Hole Machining: Updated hole template dialog and parameter list.
  • API: Command set updated.
  • Selection: Improved algorithm for Ctrl+Shift selection behavior.
  • 3D model import: Improved parallel import pipeline.

Stability & Fixes

ENCY 2.5 improves reliability across project save and open functions, autosave recovery and PLM integration, stabilizes simulation by removing false collision reports, and delivers steadier post-processing with fixes to the postprocessor generator and bundled (stock) postprocessors, and NC program generation no longer stalls. Platform and UI updates provide clearer visuals and smoother list scrolling. The release also corrects issues in STEP export, spline geometry, spatial transformations, machining result to 3D model comparison, fixes in Swarf, Hole Machining, part-geometry selection in multi-part projects, ENCY Tuner 2 and the updater.
