For 8 years, we've offered the most flexible CNC Bender software available anywhere. (See why below.) We're the TUBE FABRICATION CNC BENDER SPECIALISTS.

Description CNC Bender is a software system for controlling horizontal draw benders and push-benders. This software has been developed in partnership with SMT Industries of Sidney, Ohio. The original version release was in 2000. It is marketed exclusively through SMT Industries
Unique Features
The Most Rapid Integration - Anywhere

CNC Bender is designed to integrate to a highly diverse set of bender types. Flexibility and rapid setup is unparalleled. No other other bender control on the market can adapt so quickly to a new bender or add new features so easily.

Here's an example: Need to add another motion-controlled axis? A new axis - including complete functionality, can be added to CNC Bender in a couple of days.

Unlimited Multitasking Background Processes

CNC Bender is the only bender software that can run an unlimited number of multi-tasked background tasks while bending tube. For example, CNC Bender can be setup to run a hopper with tube detect, seam detect, hopper motion, grippers, transfer, etc. No PLCs needed.

Dynamic Options We pioneered the Dynamic Option concept. Dynamic options allow users to control the setup - but with extreme display flexibility: Make unused options invisible or disabled. Bring the most-used options to to the top of the list. Re-arrange the option controls for left or right-handed users.
Cncbender autoexternal diagram.jpgRobots Can Choose the Next Part to Fabricate CNC Bender is so powerful it can listen to your robot's command to choose another part - by name automatically to bend in the bender. CNC Bender switches to the new part, receives the part from the robot in the correct loading position, bends the part, then notifies the robot that it is finished with a part-name confirmation that it is holding the new part for removal. Click on this diagram Cncbender autoexternal diagram.jpg for an illustration of how this works.

Correct Push-Bent Parts With a Measuring Center
Using Benderlink, CNC Bender is designed to allow measuring center corrections to bend angles made through push-bending. (This applies to flat push-bends only - not coiled bends. Supravision is not designed to handle true coils.) Click on this diagram Data transfer diagram.jpg for a Benderlink illustration
Controlled Jog OR Direct Axis Jog We pioneered the controlled jog concept.

Controlled jog is a small bend program that moves the axis a programmed distance at a programmed velocity. But we also allow you to perform direct axis jogs. Direct axis jogs allow to move the axes by holding down a button. When the button is released, the jogging stops.Cncbender directaxis jog.jpg
