HACOBEND Pro Software
Offline press brake programming
HACOBEND Pro
HACOBEND Pro enables fast and predictable bending preparation away from the machine, keeping press brakes productive while programming and feasibility checks are completed offline.
HACOBEND Pro 2D offers an intuitive interface for easy 2D and parametric design.
HACOBEND Pro 3D goes further with an integrated 3D CAD module. The 3D comes with advanced features like specialized bends and automatic bend line detection.
With HACOBEND Pro, programs leave the design office ready for production.
Tooling selections, setup documentation, and quality control requirements are calculated automatically and exported in formats your press brake accepts directly.
The result is consistent repeatability on the shop floor, regardless of part complexity or operator experience level.
