1. A bending system comprising:
a first bending device comprising:
a first holding unit configured to hold an elongated workpiece;a first bending unit configured to bend the workpiece while the workpiece is held by the first holding unit; anda first moving unit configured to move the first holding unit while the workpiece is held by the first holding unit, to thereby move the workpiece in an axial direction, a second bending device comprising:
a second holding unit configured to hold the elongated workpiece; anda second bending unit configured to bend the workpiece while the workpiece is held by the second holding unit, and a control unit configured to control the first bending device and the second bending device, wherein the control unit performs bending of the workpiece by repeating, a specified number of times, the following steps:
a first bending step of bending the elongated workpiece by means of the first bending unit while the elongated workpiece is held by the first holding unit;a first moving step of moving the workpiece in the axial direction by the first moving unit while executing the first bending step;a second bending step of causing the second holding unit to hold the workpiece subsequent to the first moving step, releasing the holding of the workpiece by the first holding unit, and bending the workpiece by means of the second bending unit; anda second moving step of moving the first holding unit to a next bending position while executing the second bending step.
