Here's the youtube vid for the CNC turret punch project I finished recently. This project is using 19 I/O's apart from 3 servo motor. Used extra parallel port for these I/O's, screen4 for designing the screens and a lot of hair pulling for perfecting the macros for punching, clamping, sheet repositioning and other machine safety features.

Did you keep the original servo motors and drives?

The original motors and drives were from Siemens with analog +/-10V input. I replaced them with old Omron AC servos of matching torque and digital input drives.

Ok thanks, was just wondering as I thought they would have been analogue drives.
 Nice job BTW :)

Great Great Work!

You say 3 servos, 2 for x and y movement, what is the other? the turret?

Are you able to rotate the angle of the die? or is it set to a fixed angle?

Amazing.

Yes, third servo is for the tool turret rotation. Tool rotation is not supported in this model.
