    I need a g-code simulator for basic sheet metal punching....

    Maybe some of you can suggest some solutions. I have a mature manufacturing system that I am attempting to modify for a customer. It's using an Amada turret to manufacture sheet metal products. Rather than consume sheet metal when testing my s/w changes, I purchased punchsim to allow me to do before/after runs with my changes. Punchsim works, but it leaves much to be desired - I'd like to be able to slow it down more so I can see what's going on... Perhaps single step through the gcodes...

    Most of the s/w sims I see have to do with 3d modeling and manufacturing, so it's overkill.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks,
