Abstract

An automated bender and its method of operation according to some embodiments of the disclosure are provided. The automated bender includes a carousel which has all of the necessary components for bending a variety of conduit sizes provided thereon. The carousel can be rotated to a desired bending position to bend a particular type of conduit. A straight workpiece is fed into the automated bender and a bent workpiece, which may have multiple bends therein, is output from the automated bender. This bending process is performed without manual intervention. Software for achieving same is provided.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims domestic priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 904,588, filed November 15, 2013, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 045,867, filed September 4, 2014, the disclosures of each of which are at This is incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to an automatic pipe bender and systems and methods for providing data to operate the automatic pipe bender for: clamping a workpiece such as a pipe, pipe or conduit, rotating the workpiece to The workpiece can be properly positioned for the pipe bending operation and bent. Background technique [0004] There are several existing methods of gripping and rotating tubes, pipes and conduits. The first method is where the user manually installs an appropriately sized mandrel or collet to hold the tube, pipe or conduit which is then manually fed into the pipe bender. The user must also manual...
