Update your Turret Library file with the appropriate punch dimensions or use a smaller tool to nibble the path.

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of the Amada AP100 software, covering its core functionalities, common usage scenarios, and how to find learning resources, including potential PDF tutorials.

If you want to customize this workflow for a specific machine configuration, let me know:

Because AP100 is a legacy but still widely used system (many shops run it alongside AP100USB or later versions like VPSS), learning it remains a high-value skill.

Input the specific Bend Deduction (BD) value or use the software’s internal formula based on the material's K-Factor .

Amada AP100 is a CAD/CAM software used for , part nesting , and tool path generation for Amada turret punch presses. It is widely used in sheet metal fabrication.
