1-click programming
TURBO2plus Software
The TURBO2plus software has been created specifically for the TURBO2plus.
Draw or import a part geometry
- Draw a profile on the monitor
- Add flanges to the 3D profile
- Import a STEP file (alternatively: DXF, GEO) with the part geometry
- The software analyzes the STEP file and automatically generates a 3D model. For DXF files, the programmer has to add to the bend angle.
- Overbend angles for springback compensation are added from material tables.
Bendex OpenEditor Software
With OpenEditor programming, the operator takes the helm completely and determines the sequence of bends through his inputs.
- Manual input of target positions for axes movements
- Bending modes: Normal bending, hemming, step bending
- Tabular display of the inputs
- Program sequence created by the operator
- No automatic program generation
- Additional functions for program optimization
- Material tables
- Tool selection for automatic tool height check
- Saving programs
- Change between mm and inch
