FIELD: process engineering. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to metal forming, particularly, to tube bending. Proposed method comprises the stage of computing, at least, one cycle of instructions related to, at least, one parametre of tube production process depending upon set of data on a tube and set of process data. At least, one 3D geometrical model of, at least, one tube bending machine and appropriate tools is produced governed by, at least, one production parametre derived from cycles of computed bending instructions. To comply with thus computed bending instructions, 3D and kinematic simulation of tube bending is performed, the tube being described by set of data on tube and bending performed by bending machine and appropriate mechanical tools described by appropriate 3D geometrical model. Possibility of producing tube by, at least, one bending machine and appropriate tools is checked up. ^ EFFECT: higher quality of tube bending. ^ 14 cl, 6 dwg |
