Ease-of-use
The ease-of-use could be misleading until you see all of the powerful features and capabilities EnRoute includes.

Get it done fast
Everyone wants a product that is easy to use but how can this be measured? Count the number of clicks from design to production. There are only 4 clicks to toolpath a part and output to the machine with EnRoute. It doesn't get easier that this!

Easy to learn
You've got enough to think about every day, you don't need to stress over your software too. The logical user interface makes sense for new and seasoned users, enabling you to work more effectively.

Ease of Use = Productivity...
With the new bottom panel that replaces the floating precision input box dialog, the interface is more streamlined and out of the way. We have reordered the menus to make it more concise too.

Textures & 3d Sculpting...
The new texturing tool makes it easy to design unlimited texturing in a click of a button--see this for yourself! The new Touchup Tools will let you quickly edit a relief or create one from scratch using your mouse like a hammer and a chisel. There are no limits to your imagination!

Design...
A complete text object is introduced in the new EnRoute 4; with text on arc, text on curve, kerning, letter height, width and so on, reducing the need to use other design applications.
Do it all right inside EnRoute 4. New drawing, editing, shape measure & dimension tools make producing all your creations simpler and friendlier than ever before.
Improved Path Editing Tools are even more powerful and an ideal match for the best vectorization engine in the industry. Using the improved fillet, trim & extend and offset tool, design possiblities are limitless.

Quick Nesting...
Nesting was never so easy, just drag the object and it will automatically fit itself where it can, as if the object can think for itself!

Fast Rendering...
Fast rendering keeps you moving. Once Rendered, you can see the changes as they happen to your rendered file.
