At Holz-Handwerk 2026 in Nuremberg, imos AG has unveiled its cutting-edge software generation, iX 2025, which brings a host of practical digital solutions to the woodworking industry. Available since November 2025, this powerful new platform places a particular focus on enhancing craftsmanship while offering state-of-the-art tools that streamline design and production processes.
The iX 2025 software is designed to improve user guidance and accelerate workflows across various stages of the production process. One of the most exciting additions is the cloud-based service iX Scout, which enables businesses to track parts as they progress through the manufacturing process. This tool provides real-time visibility, allowing users to check the location of a component at any given time. For those using nesting, iX Scout also helps assign labels to the correct parts, ensuring smoother operations and reducing errors.
Beyond improving workflow efficiency, imos AG is catering to beginners and businesses transitioning to digital processes with the introduction of iX CAD/CAM CS. This solution is particularly appealing to smaller woodworking businesses or those starting to use CNC machines. Designed as an entry-level package, iX CAD/CAM CS combines the full functionality of iX CAD 2025 with a cloud-based CAM service, allowing businesses to quickly and cost-effectively enter the world of digital manufacturing.
The beauty of this new product lies in its modular approach. As businesses grow, the software can easily expand, accommodating increasing needs while preserving the master and motion data created in the earlier stages of production. This ensures that companies don’t have to start from scratch every time they upgrade, making the transition to more complex processes seamless and more cost-effective.
Moreover, imos iX 2025 enables the ability to work from anywhere, whether on-site, in the office, or even at home. Data synchronization across various iX CAD systems makes remote work possible, ensuring that information is always up to date and accessible in real time.
Another highlight of iX 2025 is the introduction of iX Render AI. This revolutionary feature empowers interior designers and furniture makers to generate photorealistic renderings directly from their designs. The AI technology interprets materials, lighting, and perspectives to produce high-quality, realistic images in seconds. These visualizations can then be used directly, without the need for external programs or specialized knowledge. For woodworking businesses, this technology is an invaluable asset, allowing them to present their designs in a realistic and convincing manner. This not only helps in showcasing individual pieces but also makes complex interior design projects easier to understand for clients.
The impact of iX Render AI on communication and decision-making is immense. It helps accelerate the design approval process by making it easier for clients to visualize the end result, leading to quicker decision-making and fewer revisions. Additionally, businesses can use these renderings as a powerful marketing tool, offering clients highly realistic previews of their customized designs.
As part of their focus on making digital tools more accessible, imos AG also offers more flexible licensing options for their products. In addition to their established licensing models, all software products can now be accessed through a subscription service, providing businesses with more financial flexibility and access to ongoing software updates.
For those looking to dive deeper into the world of digital manufacturing, the expansion of the iX product family offers even more tools to enhance productivity and improve design quality. The modularity of iX 2025 ensures that companies of all sizes can benefit from the advancements in digital tools, whether they’re just starting or are well-established players in the woodworking industry.
In conclusion, imos AG has once again demonstrated its commitment to empowering businesses with the tools they need to succeed in a rapidly changing world. With iX 2025, they are not only enhancing craftsmanship but also opening doors for small businesses and startups to adopt digital solutions that can streamline their operations, improve productivity, and make their designs more compelling. As the industry continues to evolve, tools like iX 2025 are setting the stage for the future of woodworking and interior design.
