Benderlink for Solid Works software is designed to convert from Solid Works to bender data then to connect Solid Works workstations to SVNET-based benders.
If a measuring center arm is setup to sketch a 3D centerline of a measured tube shape, then Benderlink will help you reverse-engineer tube shapes, and assist in correcting the bender's data.
Features
The main features of this software:
- - Read tube data from Solid Works
- - Convert the tube data to bender data
- - Save / Recall the bender data
- - Send new nominal data to benders that support SVNET protocol.
- - Make and send correction data to benders that support the SVNET protocol.
- Reverse-engineer tube shapes
- Correct bender data

The correction feature is peformed by measuring a tube with ROMER / FARO arm, using this data to create a tube centerline in Solid Works, then allow Benderlink to compare this inspected data with the MASTER data.
