How to Master Offline Programming for Bending: The Ultimate Guide to the Best Software iBend
ACCURL. iBend Offline For Bending:
Production preparation in line with press brake user friendliness:
The ACCURL® iBend 3D is an application for programming and simulating CNC press brakes to aximize production resources.
iBEND OFFLINE 3D SEQUENCING AND SIMULATION SOFTWARE: ACCURL. iBend enables offline generation of bend sequences and tooling setups, with dynamic 3D simulation for checking collisions of the part with tools, fingers, and machine components.
ADVANTAGES:
ACCURL iBend enhances your productivity:
•Direct part transfer from SolidWorks, Solid Edge,and Inventor.
•Importing and unfolding of IGES and STEP 3D parts.
•Importing and folding flat DXF\DWG parts with layer filtering.
•3D simulation of the bending process with collision detection.
•Faster design-to-production times with automated features.
•Offline programming means minimal machine down-time.
Bend Sequence Selection:
ACCURL .iBend automatically calculates multiple bend sequences, taking into consideration:
•Collision avoidance
•Tool segment availability
•Heel tools for over-hanging flanges
3D Simulation and Collision Detection:
Automatic simulation and collision detection for part,fingers tools,and machine:
•Detect collisions between all moving elements
•Visualize bending (overbend, springback) realistically
•Simulate operator part handling.
•Simulate the bending sequence with the full machine configuration in 3D-fingers tools, part,and machine.
Setup Reports:
Comprehensive iBend reports include all the information the operator needs to set up the tooling and bend the part.
•You can generate your report files in several formats: PDF, DOC, RTF, XLS
