Features & Benefits

EnRoute Wood, winner of the 2005 AWFS Sequoia Award for software product innovation, makes things easy. It has a unique combination of features that will help you meet all your business needs - both today and in the future. Three clicks are all you need to process an entire job from your cabinet design software and output it to your router.

»Nested-Based Manufacturing (NBM)

EnRoute gives you the easiest, fastest way to go from design to finished parts. It only requires three mouse-clicks to take a job from your cabinet design software and toolpath, nest and generate machine output. Spend more time running your shop and less time in front of the computer.

»Associative Toolpath

Toolpaths are associated with the geometry used to create them. EnRoute automatically updates the toolpath if the geometry is changed. This helps ensure accuracy and enhance workflow.

»Strategies and Templates
This is a flexible and intuitive way to save information such as tools, depths, feeds and speeds, passes, and leads, for easy recall instead of having to wade through numerous dialogs to create output.

»Comprehensive Drawing Tools
A full suite of unique CAD tools that allow you to create any type of drawing within EnRoute. 

 

»Smart Leads

EnRoute automatically locates toolpath start points based on your preference, and it creates angled toolpath entries and exits that follow the geometry of your parts. This gives you tighter nesting, higher yield, and better vacuum hold down.

»3D Engraving

Create stunning effects using simple 2D geometry. Use a V-Groove bit to add carved details, providing dimensional effects without the time required for full 3D surfacing.

»3D Surface Design
A true 3D program that can be used by mere mortals! Create trim, molding, and carvings optimized for 3-axis routing (PhD not necessary).
