A secondary processlist is a multitasking list of commands to move devices that surround the main bender motion. CNC Processor allows for any number of secondary processlists to run during the main cycle.
Our CNC Bender software is the only bender software in the world that we know of that allows for secondary processes like this. This adds extreme flexibility and power to the bending cell.
This is secondary processlist that controls an autoloader. This process runs independently of the main bending process as long as CYCLE START is active:
