"UNDER CONSTRUCTION:THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE."

  • Our Bend-Tech Dragon CAM software works alongside with Bend-Tech Industrial and is meant to prep the part(s) or project before production using the Dragon machine.
  • The "Dragon Task Menu" consists of 4 options for creating a new part or nesting project. Bend-Tech Dragon will also allow transfers from Bend-Tech Industrial and other designers.

  • Clicking on this option will allow the user to create a new "Custom Part" including bends and end cuts. It has many of the same characteristics of our "Custom Part" designer, except with a few additions that users will need in order to add copes or mitered cuts on the ends of the tubing.


Action Tabs

Die & Material

  • The "Die & Material" section is where users will select the die which will be assigned to bend the part and the material associated with that die.
  • The Select Material:" Dragon Select Material(1).png drop down menu is where users will choose their desired material.
  • The "Select Die:" Dragon Select Die(1).png drop down menu is where users will choose their desired die.
  • The section to the right of these drop down menus will show the information associated to the current die and material.

Cut Start / Cut End

The "Cut Start" tab will determine the cuts on the starting of the tube, while the "Cut End" tab will determine the cuts on the ending of the tube.

  • The "Type of Cut" section gives users the option to choose from "None", "Coping (Fishmouth)" and "Miter".
  • The "Intersecting Tube:" drop down menu will give users the option to choose the size of tube that the current part will be intersecting with. This will adjust the size of the end cope(s) or miter cut profile(s).
  • Checking the "Knifed Edge" check box will cause the coped or mitered cuts to appear as if they are cut flush to the intersecting tube.
  • Checking the "Display Cross Tube" check box will cause the intersecting cross tube to appear in the display screen.
