The Intuitive Programming

MetaBEND, 3D Bend Simulation and Programming

MetaBEND is a powerful offline software based on the MetaCAM technology developed by Metamation, Inc®. It is able to generate the following data for Cybelec numerical controls:
  • For ModEva RA, MetaBEND can generate 3D native data in the form of:
    • The geometry of a part,
    • The geometry of the part + bending solution.

  • For the rest of the ModEva S and the DNC 880S ranges(*), MetaBEND can generate .DAT data in the form of:
    • The bending solution without the geometry of the part,
    • Image (.JPEG) for each bending sequence.

(*The data can also be used for other numerical controls like the DNC 60, DNC 600S etc.)


The MetaBEND software offers various other powerful features:


  • An auto tooler, which will select the appropriate tooling to be used according to the machine type and 3D model, thus generating a collision free bend sequence.

  • A fully animated bend simulator with collision checks. The simulation and detected collisions can be inspected and corrected in detail thanks to the graphic interface.








  • Graphic tool layouts allow modifications to be made with ease to tooling and bend reports provide 3D views of each bend.










  • The back gauges can also be viewed in the 3D visual representation window; changes can therefore be made to their positions easily.
