The nugget describes the added value that machine tool simulation at a G-Code level can provide. The advantages of such a strategy are presented and both in terms of accuracy of the final part program. Furthermore, the nugget showcases a real-world example of how software such as VERICUT can be used to analyze part programs to identify problematic cutting parameters during the simulation and implement changes in order to optimize the process thus increasing stability and performance
