Requestor Title*: CTE Coordinator - District Welding Programs
Software Name*: Bend-Tech
Software Description*: Bend-Tech SE is a must have software if you bend tube, pipe, rod, wire, and bar. Bend-Tech will allow students to design, measure, bend, shape metal material used by the welding classes. This software was introduced at a Utah CTE summer conference and used by other high schools in our state. We feel this program will prepare students for the workplace, learn a valuable skill without mistakes. This software can help measure, provide the angle or degree of the bend, position of the bend, proper welding processes and non-destructive testing.
