Our ergent requirement for Bending Machine Data

[Anonymous]

Bending Machine Data is necessary for our design work, because it can be used to communicate with manufacturer directly.

That’s the reason why we need the bending data related with model. We need it in our drawing and can be updated automatically when the model is modified.

Hi,

The problem we are facing is the fact that the Bend machine output coordinates starts at the origin of the assembly. But the manufacturer who bends our piping requiers a bend table wich starts at the origin of the pipe itself. Now we have to do a lot of extra work to get the specified information out of the 3D model.

I wondered if there is some software in development or already for use as a plug-in or somehow which fixes our problem and saves us a lot of time.
