An all-new version of Unison's free-to-use Tube Bending app makes it simple and straightforward for tube-bending machinery operators to confirm the required tooling type, mandrel style, size, and material, as well as bend torque and machine size. As an additional benefit, a clear, simple indication of 'application difficulty'—the difficulty of bending virtually any metal, wall thickness, and diameter—is also provided. Where customers are looking to bend new components or start new projects, but do not have the correct tooling or machinery, the app provides an easy feasibility/viability check, detailing essential data regarding the equipment they will need to use.
Features include a project-specific filing system and a dashboard for instant access to tube data, project notes, tooling setup, mandrel setup, and machine power. There's an updated conversion tool for transforming XYZ coordinates into YBC bending data. As in previous versions of the app, units of measurement can be displayed as either metric or imperial, while reports can be downloaded in PDF format for desktop filing, sharing, review, and consideration.

Unison has stated that it will soon be linking the data created by the app to its comprehensive bend tool quoting and manufacturing offer to provide users with a rapid means of costing and ordering any tooling they require.
