Hello, this is a question, now I’m working closely with bending equipment, I’m working out the equipment, I have to work with quite complex bends, tell me if there is any software to create a software program for a sheet bender, and check the possibility of bending, for errors, in general, after digging around, I found several options ( Metalix Bend, RadBend, AutoPol) but I couldn’t find any of this, maybe someone has information, resources, tell me if there is something like that, and how to get it)
 
Aside from general 3d modeling which will get you 90% of the way there like solidworks or inventor, we also have a program called Vision. We got the program with our new press brake so not sure if the program is tied to the machine or if it can be set up independently but may be worth the look. Would have to talk to the vendor.
