Preparing bending programs away from the machine
Press Brake Upgrade
Press Brake Software
CAD import, unfolding, tooling, bend sequence, collision checks and program transfer must match the controller and production handoff.
Workflow
CAD import to program transfer
Confirm
File formats, controller, tooling data and output
Information Needed
Start With Your CAD Files and Controller
List CAD formats, drawing quality, material/tool libraries, controller and production handoff.
01 / INPUT
Engineering data
List CAD formats, drawing quality, material and tooling libraries available before programming.
02 / PROGRAM
Program workflow
Describe unfolding, tool selection, bend sequence, simulation, collision checks and operator review.
03 / TRANSFER
Machine transfer
Check controller, program transfer, revision control, tooling data and acceptance output.
Software workflow
From CAD Data to Machine Program
Match the software to your CAD data, tooling library, controller and program-transfer method.
Profile-T2D and Profile-T3D
Profile-T2D prepares 2D part programs and tool setups. Profile-T3D adds 3D part programming and simulation. Match the offline licence and the target DA-Touch control software to the installed press.
Profile-T version specifications (PDF) →
Bend sequence and tool setup
Use the selected edition to prepare the part, assign tools and check the bend sequence. Simulate the machine and tooling that will actually run the job.
CAD Import and Unfolding
In this Profile-T release, DXF import is a Profile-T3D feature. Identify the source file format, software version, material and bend allowances before importing a representative part.
Profile T3D Workflow
Deliver the part program with its tool setup and revision. Transfer it to the matched controller, then check the first bend on the machine against the drawing.
Before You Order
Compare the Programming Workflow
Compare your source drawing, the offline licence and the target controller. Test the entire handoff with one part, from CAD input and bend sequence to the machine program and first-piece inspection.

Upgrade path
Plan Your Machine Upgrade
Identify the production problem, check compatibility, then agree installation and acceptance.
STEP 01
Document the current state
Record machine, controller, interfaces, photos, workflow and the production issue to solve.
STEP 02
Define the requirement
Connect workpieces, process, operator tasks, output and site conditions to the upgrade.
STEP 03
Confirm compatibility
Review mechanical, electrical, control, software, safety and service interfaces.
STEP 04
Agree the scope
Define installation, tests, acceptance, documentation, training and support responsibilities.

Offline Programming Questions
Compatibility depends on controller, licenses, formats, network, machine options and required workflow.
Can this offline programming software be used on an existing machine?
Check formats, controller, tooling libraries, transfer method, version and program output.
What information should I send?
Send controller/software version, CAD formats, sample parts, tooling data, current workflow and desired output.
What determines compatibility?
Compare firmware, file exchange, licenses, network, offline functions and machine requirements.
What should the quotation clarify?
Name software/licenses, interfaces, installation, data transfer, training and service terms.
