The Wayne Trail Flexbending Systems is one of the most complex bender systems available anywhere. It uses multiple sub-benders that performs bending from both ends of the tube at the same time. It is completely programmable for changing parts in seconds.

Benderlink for Flexbending Systems simplifies the setup and correction of the system through a series of sophisticated setup screens that convert standard bender data to the Flexbending System style data.

It allows you to enter XYZ centerline data, convert that data to standard bender data, then convert that data to Flexbending Systems data through sophisticated mapping screens that teach the bender how to assign the standard bender data to its sub-benders. After the initial mapping setup is complete, the software converts measuring center corrections automatically to steer the bender to a good part.

Protect The Data: Password Protection

Setup data takes time to develop. We provide a secure method of controlling who has access to the data in Benderlink for Flexbending Systems.

  1. Login user control: Administrator, Supervisor, and Operator levels allow varying level of access and control
  2. The administrator can establish new supervisors and users - but does not set their password
  3. The supervisor and user have various levels of access to the system. Each individual sets his own password - which is not controlled by anyone else (including the administrator)
  4. Benderlink automatically displays a login screen after a period of no screen activity
  5. Logs provide an audit trail: You can see who made changes to the data and when
