VGPNext
CAD/CAM programming and simulation for tube and wire bending machines

VGPNext

Programming tube benders and wire benders has never been so simple

VGPNext is the CAD/CAM software for offline programming of BLM GROUP tube bending and wire bending machines, available on the machine and from the office. Extremely easy to use, it guides you step by step and gives you access to advanced features and exclusive services for tube bending.

Make it easy

So easy everyone looks like an expert with VGPNext.
The intuitive programming software for tube and wire benders.

From the library to the finished part
Find the part program quickly, simulate and start production in just a few clicks.
Guiding you straight to the result
From the drawing to 3D simulation, follow the directions and kick off production safely.
Correct every defect
With the experience implemented on the machine, bends are perfect every time.

A simple and user-friendly
programming flow

Identify the part program easily.
Take advantage of the program library and locate the tube in seconds. Alternatively, import it with B_Import. You choose the method!
No manual adjustments, the program does it all.
Automatically acquire the geometry, adjustments and job parameters - all you have to do is choose the machine! And go straight to production getting the part right from the start.
3D simulation
No collisions, no worries.
Simulate the bending cycle with true-to-life 3D graphics. No risk of collisions typical of preliminary practical tests.
Defects? VGPNext helps you correct them.
Scratches, wrinkles, wrong bent tube angles... the machine tells you how to eliminate them and learns day after day.
Monitor your
daily production.
You can always keep an eye on the recent production, the number of produced parts and much more!

Tube bending and wire bending program
on the machine or in the office

Tube and wire bending programming software

Choose where to program your parts! With the PC version of VGPNext, you can program tube bending machines and wire bending machines offline without having to interrupt processing and program all BLM GROUP bending systems from a single PC.

AI for tube bending

AI-powered tube bender

AI calculates the technological parameters with a single click depending on the geometry and material of the bend piece. All the experience you need is already in VGPNext.

Tube laser cutting
and bending

All-in-one bending and laser tube-cutting technology

VGPNext dialogues with the BLM GROUP Lasertube and cutting system programming software, providing tube elongation corrections. So you get cut and bent tubes right from the start.
