LVD CADMAN-Sim is an intelligent offline programming and simulation software specifically developed for LVD's robotic bending cells. It functions as a specialized plugin for CADMAN-B, importing bend solutions to automatically calculate collision-free robot paths and optimal gripper positions. The software eliminates the need for manual "robot teaching," allowing users to generate complete part programs in under 20 minutes. Its high-precision 3D simulation environment provides a full walkthrough of the robot and press brake functions to verify production before any metal is formed. By integrating with the broader CADMAN database, it ensures a seamless "art-to-part" workflow for sheet metal fabricators handling both small batches and high-volume production.
