Monaco, Jan 6, 2026 – JETCAM International s.a.r.l. has announced the release of version 25.12 of its flagship JETCAM Expert CAD/CAM software, introducing innovative features that enhance productivity and automation for sheet metal and composite fabrication.
Key highlights of this release include:
- Anti-Tipping Microjoints – Automatically applied on nested parts when using slat geometry files with Automatic Ordering or JET-Cut fly cutting functionality, preventing parts from tipping during cutting operations, avoiding machine head crashes.
- Auto Extend License Management – New automated license and maintenance extension functionality that validates soft licenses online with JETCAM servers, particularly beneficial for remote server deployments where license visibility is limited.
- Ultra Performance Nesting (UPN) updates – Several improvements to Ultra Performance Nesting (UPN) including new intelligent nesting direction options (‘To Corner’, ‘Horizontal’, ‘Vertical’), improved hole scrap utilization, and automatically renesting of smaller parts within holes of larger components, maximizing material utilization and leaving more usable remnants.
- Optimized NC Code Generation – Dramatically improved speed across all Generic postprocessors, especially when generating code for nests with large numbers of components.
- Improved File Handling Performance – Highly optimized speed when opening files with vast numbers of segments, particularly when intersection point calculation is enabled.
“Version 25 introduces features that directly address real-world manufacturing challenges while continuing to improve overall performance,” said Martin Bailey, Managing Director of JETCAM International. “The Anti-Tipping Microjoints feature alone will save manufacturers significant time and reduce potentially expensive head crashes by preventing parts from becoming unstable during cutting. Combined with new features such as Auto Extend, UPN updates and drastic performance improvements in several key areas, this release demonstrates our commitment to streamlining operational workflows for our customers.”
Additional enhancements include:
- Nine new postprocessors supporting machines from Murata, Pathfinder, Mitsubishi, HK Laser, Eastman, Boschert, Oree, FlexiCAM, and Houfek
- Updates to multiple existing postprocessors to support new machine capabilities including JET-Cut automatic fly cutting functionality.
- Improved simulator performance with enhanced path optimization and simulation speed.
- Enhanced Remote Control Processing (RCP) with template nesting support and custom NC file path options.
- New hole size limit options for sheet usage efficiency calculations.
- Support for tighter CrossTrack application integration via a new direct communications platform.
- Hundreds of bug fixes and stability improvements across all modules.
