One of the most notable upgrades in Ency 1.0.6 is the introduction of support for 7-axis robots in Ency Robot. This includes compatibility with 64 Kuka cobots, spanning both 7-axis and 6-axis Scara robots, such as the Kuka iiwa and Kuka LBR. With this expansion, Ency Robot now offers greater flexibility in robotic programming, further solidifying its role as a comprehensive automation solution.

The update also brings significant enhancements to the Online Project Library. A newly implemented AI-powered tagging system improves searchability, making it easier for users to locate relevant machining projects among the more than 400 available. Users can now filter results by applying specific tags, such as Statue, to quickly find machining projects related to statues. Additionally, AI now automatically assigns tags to both existing and newly uploaded projects, ensuring better organization and more precise search results.

Another major improvement is the expansion of the Project Library feature to Ency Tuner. Previously, this functionality was available only in other Ency products, but with update 1.0.6, Ency Tuner users can now access and utilize the extensive project database.

The Ency Clouds platform also sees the introduction of several powerful new features. Integrated screen recording now allows users to record their screens directly from Ency or Ency Robot without relying on third-party software. These recordings are stored in a compact format with audio support, providing an efficient way to document and share workflows. Additionally, projects can now be opened directly in Ency, Ency Robot, or Ency Tuner from a browser, improving accessibility and workflow Efficiency.

In terms of usability improvements, Ency 1.0.6 introduces enhanced precision in its 6D Contour operation, where the 5D Curve task now displays the arbitrary vector angle with a precision of up to two decimal places. Smarthints have been updated to provide clearer guidance for approach/retract parameters, thread-cutting operations, and part transfer processes. The Tool Reach inspector interface has been redesigned with expanded functionality to improve tool management. Furthermore, the "Delete chips" parameter is now enabled by default for the Part-off with takeover operation. Users also gain greater flexibility, as tools can now be interactively moved on any tab within the Operation Properties inspector in the Machining window. Enhancements in operation export data and the introduction of a revised export file format further improve compatibility and data accuracy.

The update also addresses multiple stability and functionality issues, ensuring a smoother and more reliable user experience. Key bug fixes include resolving errors related to project saving, licensing activation, and report generation. Improvements have been made in visualization, tool orientation data, multi-channel robotic machining, and NC Tuner interface elements. Additionally, various issues within machining operations, the postprocessor generator, and CAD module functions have been corrected, further reinforcing the reliability of the Ency software suite.

Ency 1.0.6 is available to all users with an active annual support contract (SMC).
