Sheetmetal CAM

(OP)
I am looking for cam software to program Amada turret punch presses, and have arrived at a short list of Metalsoft & Striker.  Any opinions/thoughts about which is the better product?  I favor Striker because of the arrogant attitude of the Metalsoft sales people, but would appreciate any feedback.

RE: Sheetmetal CAM

I have been using Fabriwin for many years, sorry to hear that you have had problems with sales personal. I have dealt only with people at Amada not with people at MetalSoft .
I have also heard that MetaCam has a good product silimar to
what Amada offered prior to mergering with MetalSoft.

RE: Sheetmetal CAM

There is also Optimation and SigmaNest.

RE: Sheetmetal CAM

Try looking at WiCAM's PN4000 CAD/CAM Software. They are suppose to open a new US office.

Check them out at www.wicam.com

They are by far the most advanced
