PLUS BEND – Bending Software: is a software which automatically calculates the total flat length of bent component, after the user has fed all the necessary information regarding the bent component, at the click of a button the flat length of the component is calculated. Thus after obtaining the flat length of the bent component and its width we can get the size of the blank to be cut from the stock.

This data can be exported to PLUS 2D for generating cutting layouts for material optimization by a simple click of the button. The software can automatically develop the bending schedule and the marker diagram for the bent component.

Application Areas: PLUS Bend is useful for Cabinet Manufacturers, Manufacturing of Industrial Enclosures, HVAC and Door Manufacturers and a range of industries in Sheet Metal Bending.
