Bending software updated for better interconnection of workstations

Aicon 3D Systems has introduced version 3.1 of the software platform BendingStudio. The new version has made interconnected work at different workstations more efficient. The Data Service module is more transparent; connections to other workstations are visibly displayed. The user sees network problems immediately and can directly restore the network connection.

Currently used components are marked in the selection lists. They are displayed in a separate info box; a lock symbol shows all connected operators who are actually working with the component.

Applying the Network Service module, users can store their data on a central server and still use it for measurements. Measurement results for the respective components are transmitted directly to the server.

The Assembly module is applied to check holders and extensions with the help of adapters. Based on a drawing, the target data of extensions can be gradually transmitted into the software. If all test criteria are already available in the component’s coordinate system, the implementation is reduced to a few clicks.

In the basic version of the software, the Advanced Backup Service has been revised. It allows a complete data backup via timing or manual trigger. Older backups are not overwritten. In case of data recovery, the required version can be chosen via time information.
