Angle Measurement System (Pre-release)
The Angle Measurement System (AMS) automatically measures and corrects the bend angle during the bending process. It calculates and compensates for spring-back in real time, reducing the need for manual corrections. This saves production time and minimizes scrap and rework.

Sensor types
RightAngle supports the following AMS sensor types. To view or change the sensor type, navigate to Settings → Other Settings → Machine Settings → General Parameters → Machine tab → Angle Measurement System (AMS) Type.
- IRIS Plus
-
An integrated real-time imaging system for press brake machines. It combines optical safety protection with camera-based angle measurement in a single solution.
- VC nano 3D-Z
-
(Not yet implemented)
A laser-based sensor that uses a laser beam and camera to continuously monitor the sheet during bending. - EAM2300
-
(Not yet implemented)
A line-laser sensor that combines high-speed laser measurement with advanced motion control for real-time angle detection and compensation. It includes an embedded processor with 3D measurement capabilities. - None
-
Deactivates AMS.
