Bystronic’s ByVision Bending on tablet PCs, and voice activated
As of now, ByVision Bending, the user interface for Bystronic press brakes, can also be installed on Windows tablet computers. Users are now able to access the processes and manufacturing details of press brakes and discuss them with customers, around the clock and regardless of location. The tablet version includes ByVision Bending's full range of functions.
In a related development, Bystronic says it has also added voice control to ByVision Bending. With this feature, the most important operations on Bystronic press brakes can be executed by voice command. On average, the operator spends two hours per shift carrying out corrections on press brake control units, says Bystronic. However, with voice control, operators can reduce this non-productive time. Voice control is available in English and German for Hämmerle, Xpert and Xcite press brakes.
