Original Press Release:
Bystronic Introduces New, User-Friendly 3D Software Module for Bysoft Users
(Hauppauge, NY) Bystronic will introduce the Bysoft software version 6.2.2 with a new, highly efficient integrated 3D module for part unfolding. This new module allows users to completely unfold three dimensional models from SAT, STEP and IGES formats. Through a direct interface, 3D models are taken over directly from SolidWorks® and Autodesk Inventor® into the Unfolder. Bend allowances can be readily assigned to the 3D bent part by way of selecting bending tools and placing them within the Unfolder. The 3D model can be unfolded to 2D and then easily imported into Bysoft, Bystronic's integrated cutting and bending software.
Bysoft software enables complete process optimization from file to part. It offers users advanced synchronization of press brake, laser and waterjet processes. Bybend, another integrated Bysoft software module, provides automatic bend deductions, tool selection, bending sequences and back gauge placements for press brake users. This feature permits visualization of the bending sequences as well as automation collision detection before the part is sent to the operator for processing. This software reduces set up time and the need for test bending.
Bystronic Inc. has provided its customers with quality laser cutting, waterjet cutting and press brake systems, training and customer support for over 25 years. The company's North American headquarters, with manufacturing, service, parts inventory, customer training, sales and administration, is located in Hauppauge, NY. Offices are located in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Mexico. Please call 800-247-3332 or visit www.bystronic.com for more information.
