Revision as of 06:34, 17 April 2009
This software is designed to enable communication with BLM VGP-based benders. |
MAIN FEATURES
1 - Allows for bi-directional communications with measuring centers for bender correction
2 - Communicates with the VGP software by reading and writing the VGP native data files
3 - Import data from Solid Modeling software like SolidWorks using Benderlink for SolidWorks.
APPLICATION Information
Download an applications datasheet for the FARO Arm and BLM Benders. |
|
Download an applications datasheet for the Eaton Leonard Vector Tube Data Center and BLM Benders. |
Benderlink for BLM Software Updates
Note: As of version 3.0 and higher, Benderlink for BLM supports the modification of the VGP format directly. VGP is software that allows operators to program and setup the BLM benders controls. A copy of VGP is installed on each BLM operator station.
