Dynamic Viewing - The model view can be zoomed, rotated and otherwise manipulated during Toolpath verification using the SmartCAM Dynamic View controls.

Streamlined User Interface - A new and simplified Verification user Interface provides a compact and flexible interface.

Verification within the SmartCAM Graphics Window - All Toolpath Verification is now displayed within the SmartCAM Graphics Window.

Batch-Processing - The range selected for verification can be batch-processed, delivering rapid results without toolpath or material removal simulation.

Increased controls - New controls can be used to pause Verification after each Element or Move, after each STEP or at the End of the entire model.

Fully revised Collision and Gouge Detection - Collision and Gouge Detection has been fully rewritten for Version 2017.

Store the In-Process Stock Model - The In-Process Stock Model can be stored in STL format at any point during Verification, for use as stock when verifying subsequent processes.

More Display Options - Toolpath, Rapid Moves and End points can optionally be displayed during Verification.

New Rotary Axis positioning algorithms and tools - SmartCAM benefits from a new rotary axis positioning engine.

New terminology reflects the increased range of supported rotary axis configurations - New terminology has been implemented for SmartCAM Rotary Axis.

Travel Limits incorporated into the Code Generator Machine Define file (smf) - Travel Limits now set when Defining a Machine, no longer dependent upon Template logic.

Enhanced Code Generator tools further support new rotary axis capabilities - The SmartCAM Code generation system has been enhanced to further support rotary axis code output.

Code Generation mechanism changes of interest - A number of Code Generation mechanism changes are of technical interest to SmartCAM Code Generator toolkit users.

All New Open Profile Region Calculation - The Open Profile Process region calculation has been completely re-written.

Enhanced Open Profile Process Smoothing - High-Speed Toolpath Smoothing options have been added to the Open Profile Process, aligning the Process with functionality of other Roughing Toolpath Processes.

Lead In/Out and Cutter Compensation capability added to the Open Profile Process - Means that the Open Profile Process is now more applicable to semi-finishing and finishing operations.

New Drag-and-Drop functionality in the List View - Drag-and-Drop can be used to resequence geometry and set the Insert position in the SmartCAM List View Tree.

New Job Info button added to the application toolbar - A new Job Info button gives direct access to Job information for the current process model.

KBM Library data display is more user-customizable - The Tool- and Step-related tables and the Process Parameters Dialogs in the KBM Library can be modified according to user preferences.

Move Up/Down Buttons Added to KBM Load Lists - Move Up and Move Down buttons can be used to change the order of items added to the list of selected Tools or Steps.

Solution Trigger Display Option - The dialog solution trigger fields can now be more clearly presented.

Improved Job Data Connections when Merging Process Models - New capability to retain Tool / Step associations when merging existing Process Models.

Solid Hole Secondary Axis Alignment - The From Solid - Hole function has been enhanced by a new Axis Align option.

Reset an Options setting - Option settings changed in the Utility - Options menu can now be individually reset to the as-installed state.

Changes to the Visual Customization Toolkit (VCTK) - Change the order of items in a custom panel.

Updated CAD Data Translation - Optional native CAD file translators have been updated.
