Sheet Metal Bending Software
Sheet Metal Bending Software
(OP)
Can anyone recommend a sheet metal bending program. We bend multiple gauges of stainless steel, with up to 10 bends per piece. The bends are all done on the length of the sheet, so a 3D unfolder is not necessary, but can be considered. Something where I could draw out the profile and it would tell me the blank width and bend points would be ideal. I know there is similar software for bending pipe, but I cant find anything for bending sheet metal.
Thank You.
Thank You.

Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches.

We at WiCAM have a product called PN4000 that is a complete
2D/3D/NC intergrated sheet metal cad/cam package. In our software we have a 2D function that can provide the exact solution you desire. Create 2D profiles that will automatically create 2D flats with bending points.

Not expensive, good sheet metal module, easy to learn (also on line tutorial). I've used it for CN machine programming and found it very friendly.
