The program also contains a complete little CAD program (DXF Editor). You can save the G-Code or modify it before you save it. After clicking on a DXF file you get the G-Code and a graphical representation (plot) of the G-Code. I own a precision fab shop (job shop)with three CNC Turret Punch Presses,We normally run anything from 26Ga to 1/4' Mild Steel on our punches,Our volume of work in the 7ga and 1/4' inch range has been increasing but not to the point to justify the expense of a laser,We would like to get some of this work off of our punches and we are considering the shopbot,I have a few questions I would like to have answered before purchasing a shopbot (#1) Can I purchase a High Definition power supply that is compatible with the shopbot and what price range would the power supply be in?,We would like to be able to cut up to 1/2' Mild Steel plate if required.(#2)We currently use Teksoft ProCAD/CAM Package to draw and toolfit our parts for our turrets it has a built in post processor which generates the G-Code according to the Machine Controller being used we would like to be able to use our on software and download the program into the Shopbot for conversion if required.Is this possible and if not what would you suggest as the best option without using another software to draw our parts in.
