ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for bending an elongated material in any direction includes a chucking unit, an arm robot having at least three swiveling arm segments, a bending head provided on a free end of the arm segment and a moving device for moving the robot along a line parallel to the chucked material. The bending head is moved by the arm robot perpendicularly toward and away from the material. This facilitates the changing of the bending die to one having a different bending radius to execute bending using various radii. Moreover, since the chucking unit includes an avoiding mechanism for avoiding interference with the arm robot, bending near the center part of the material is also possible.
