"V24 is all about performance. Not only have we optimised and refactored code in ‘high usage’ areas of the software, such as NC code generation, but the 64-bit Preview Release demonstrates a drastic increase in nesting efficiency for our High and Ultra Performance time-based nesting algorithms, delivering much more efficient nests over the same time as a 32-bit system.” said Martin Bailey, Managing Director of JETCAM International. "In addition to core performance changes that will benefit all users, there are new features that will aid specific groups of customers using, punch, laser, routing and knife cutting technologies."
