Below is an embedded version of the Penta Simulator with the Clamp - Complete.ngc file loaded. You can use this embedded version of the Penta Simulator to experiment with modifying the g-code program and removing completed tool operations.
Use the following parameters to properly position the Clamp part in the simulator. Remember to click the Stop/Start Program Button to stop the program before entering tool and work offset values.
Tool 6 Z offset = -3.2427
Tool 25 Z offset = -3.2427
G54 Work Offsets:
X = -1.1723
Y = 1.7449
Z = 0.9225
