New semi-annual release cadence puts major capabilities in customers\u2019 hands faster, starting with simulation that runs up to 10x faster and Mastercam Copilot for voice-controlled programming<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

February 9, 2026 (Tolland, Conn.) \u2013 Mastercam, the world\u2019s leading CAD\/CAM software, today announced the release of Mastercam 2026.R2<\/a><\/strong>, the second installment in its new semi-annual release cycle. This shift from annual to semi-annual updates reflects Mastercam\u2019s commitment to delivering continuous innovation and responding to the evolving needs of modern manufacturing. Rather than waiting a full year between major updates, customers will now receive significant new capabilities twice per year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab\u00a0Our customers told us they needed faster verification, less time on repetitive tasks, and quicker access to new capabilities,\u00a0\u00bb said Nand Shivkumar, Chief Innovation Officer at Mastercam. \u00ab\u00a0The move to semi-annual releases means we can respond to what shops are asking for without making them wait. When simulation runs in seconds instead of minutes, and an AI assistant handles routine programming steps, machinists can focus on the work that actually requires their expertise.\u00a0\u00bb <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GPU Simulation: Verification Speed Meets Accuracy<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The new GPU simulation delivers high-resolution verification without extended processing time. In testing, verification that took nearly 90 minutes with CPU simulation completed in just over 22 minutes with GPU acceleration\u2014maintaining the accuracy programmers depend on while dramatically reducing wait time. Shops working with complex multi-operation parts can now run through collision detection and material analysis without compromising their production schedule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Mastercam Copilot: AI-assisted Programming<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Mastercam Copilot brings AI automation to everyday programming tasks. Machinists can adjust feed rates and spindle speeds across multiple operations using voice or text commands, with confirmation prompts built in for safety. The assistant supports approximately 200 toolpath types and can build complete machine groups based on verbal descriptions. A hands-free mode, activated by the keyword \u00ab\u00a0Copilot,\u00a0\u00bb enables voice-controlled operation for users who prefer to keep their hands on the work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Copilot also searches the myMastercam video library, returning answers with timestamps that link directly to relevant training content\u2014eliminating the time spent scrubbing through tutorials to find specific information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Avanc\u00e9es Multiaxes : La complexit\u00e9 au service de la simplicit\u00e9<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

For shops pushing the limits of precision, Mastercam 2026.R2 introduces automatic tilting with bullnose endmills, improved 4-axis Swarf milling, smarter clearance plane calculations, and optimized level-based ordering\u2014reducing cycle times and improving part quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probing Upgrade: Blum Digilog Setter Support<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

This release adds support for Blum laser tool setters across major CNC controls, enabling users to output tool setting macros directly from Mastercam. Tool height offsets, wear checks, and breakage detection are now managed within the application, eliminating manual edits and streamlining setup. The integration works with Fanuc, Siemens, Okuma, Heidenhain, Mazak, and Makino controls, keeping tool data centralized without requiring manual code editing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Availability<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Mastercam 2026.R2 is available now and offered as a free update to all customers on an active Mastercam CONNECT maintenance and support plan. Learn more here<\/a> or log-in to myMastercam<\/a> to download<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
