Vectric Aspire 11.016

What's new in Aspire V11


CUSTOM BRUSH SCULPTING
The new custom brush sculpting tool gives you the option of using any model as a sculpting brush, allowing you to add texture and detail to your composite model.
3D SEGMENTING
When importing 3rd party 3D models we've added the ability to interactively segment the model into parts to help minimize the loss of detail (undercuts) that can occur upon import.
MULTI SHEET SUPPORT
Enables you to organize your work through the new sheet management tab. Each sheet can become its own project, making it an ideal solution when you are working on projects with multiple materials.
3D REST MACHINING
Uses multiple tools to optimize machining time, material removal and tool lifespan. Within the 3D finish toolpath you have the option to use multiple tools with each tool removing any remaining material the previous tool was unable to.
SHAPE CREATOR - CUSTOM SHAPES
Custom profiles can now be used to create shapes within the create shape tool allowing you to control how the created shape is built up.
3D ROUGHING - AVOID MACHINED AREAS
The 3D raster strategy in the 3D roughing toolpath now has the option to avoid machined areas. For some types of 3D models this will result in shorter machining times.
SHAPE CREATOR - SWEEP
The new sweep option in the create shape form will take the chosen profile (either one of the pre-provided, or a new custom profile), and sweeps the vector inside of any selected closed vectors.
VARIABLE THICKNESS RELIEF SLICING
The slicing feature gives you the option to choose the thickness of individual slices to ensure there are no thin slices that can be problematic from an assembly point of view.
RESIZE VECTORS INDIVIDUALLY
We've introduced an option in the set size tool to allow you to resize vectors within a selection on an individual basis allowing you to resize multiple vectors to a value or percentage.
SPELL CHECKER
In various text entry fields spelling errors will now be underlined in red. You can locate the correct spelling from the right click menu to automatically replace the incorrect word.
RE-IMPORT 3D MODELS
When you import 3rd party 3D models as standard components in the software you can right click on the component(s) to take you back to the model orientation form where the software will remember the last settings used.
SWAP SIDES IN TWO SIDED JOBS
When working in a two sided project you can now take advantage of the new option to swap sides from the edit menu, where the software will swap over all of the content that is on one side to the other.
ONLINE POST PROCESSOR & MACHINE MANAGEMENT
From V11 it will be possible to add and configure different machines. Each machine can have a set of post-processors defined, and a separate tool database, so that machine settings, post-processors, and tool feeds and speeds can be kept in sync.
NESTING COMPONENTS & VECTORS SIMULTANEOUSLY
It is now possible to nest components and vectors simultaneously within your job, using the nest tool.
TEXT KERNING - WHOLE LINE
The edit text spacing tool has been enhanced so that you can now adjust the spacing between all characters on a line in one go.
3D ROUGHING - RASTER ANGLE
When using the 3D roughing toolpath there is now the option to specify a raster angle that no longer restricts you to the X or Y axis. Helping to avoid scenarios where there is excess material left for the finishing toolpath.
POCKET REST MACHINING TIME
When using the pocket toolpath, the detection of previously removed material has been significantly improved. If an area of material has already been cut by a larger tool that area should be skipped with subsequent tools resulting in faster machining times when multi-tool pocketing.
UNDO POLYLINE & DRAW CURVE
When creating vectors using the polyline and draw curve tool you can take advantage of the undo shortcut to be able to easily undo the last span.
MOULDING TOOLPATH - VECTOR SELECTOR
In the moulding toolpath form you can now make use of the automatic vector selector options allowing you to automatically select the rail and profile vectors for machining. This also means it is now possible to save moulding toolpaths as toolpath templates, making their creation easily automatable for a much quicker workflow.
CHAMFER TOOLPATH OVERCUT
In the chamfer toolpath we've introduced a new over cut option which enables you to use the side of the tool to make the final cut along the edge of the chamfer. This helps to ensure that the tip of the tool stays off the finished part.
DELETE EMPTY LAYERS
It is now possible to delete multiple layers from the right click menu within the layers menu.
RAMPING ON VCARVE
It is now possible to ramp plunges moves for all end mills and other types of clearance tools for which the corner sharpening option is unchecked. Helping to reduce the chance of your tools breaking, and can reduce wear and tear on the tools.
LASER MODULE
The laser cut & fill toolpath has seen improvements to the hatch fill option, when selecting multiple vectors in your job to hatch fill, you can now specify to 'fill together' or 'fill regionally'. When using the fill together option the laser head will fill out selected regions in one motion, in some cases this would result in faster machining times as the laser head doesn't need to slow down on a per region basis. The 'fill regionally' option will fill in each region before moving on to the next.
We've also added the ability to specify whether you want to outline your hatch fill too, so now you can create hatching that would simulate shaded areas without the solid outline.





Aspireprovides a powerful but intuitive software solution for creating and cutting parts on a CNC router. Aspire is built on the same platform as Vectric's VCarve Pro software, sharing the intuitive interface and ease of use for production design and routing. In addition to the powerful drawing and production routing tools of VCarve Pro, Aspire also has tools to let you transform 2D sketches, photos, drawing and digital artwork into detailed 3D relief models and then to calculate 3D Roughing and Finishing toolpaths to accurately cut these shapes.
The releaseAspire V11includes lots of new features including; custom brush sculpting, multi sheet support for easy management of multi material projects, spell checking, 3D rest machining for optimized machining times and much more.

Shell Sign | Vectric V11 Tutorials

This video shows the process to model a 3D sign using the create shape and two rail sweep function. We then look at how you can incorporate 3D clip art into the design and finish the example off by looking at the 3D roughing, 3D finishing, V-Carving and profile toolpaths to cut that out on a CNC machine.
Vectric Ltd.is a UK based company specializing in Design and Machining software solutions for CNC Router users. Due to an emphasis on customer success, based on affordable, easy to learn but full-featured products, Vectric has seen year on year sales and personnel growth since being founded in 2005. This growth was recognised when Vectric was awarded the prestigious Queen's Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2010.
