CIDAN launches its next-generation CNC control system for the F-series folders – built to take the complexity out of bending and put precision at your fingertips. CIDAN’s new nuLINK™ control system is now rolling out in the U.S. (mid-October 2025), bringing a modern, connected user experience to sheet-metal folding. Designed with roofers and fabrication teams in mind, nuLINK combines an intuitive touch interface with powerful automation so operators of all skill levels can produce accurate parts – first time, every time. The new system has been available in Europe since last year and is well proven from many roofers.
What’s new with nuLINK :
Always Connected – less waiting, more uptime
With SIM-based connectivity, nuLINK enables remote access to PLC and HMI and no physical cables. You get:
- Real-time monitoring and diagnostics
- Automatic backups and online software updates
- Cloud-based recovery for long-term system stability
The result? Reduced technician waiting time, quicker issue resolution, and higher machine availability.
Box Generator + full 3D – prototype at the control
Create box profiles with a single click in the Box Generator. Start from presets or build from scratch using drag-and-drop. Fine-tune with:
- Bevels, corner reliefs/cuts, radius shaping
- Segment joins, multi-select, and full undo/redo
- Powerful point-editing and snap tools
Integrated 3D visualization validates geometry before production, enabling operators to design even complex boxes and prototypes at the machine – no external CAD/CAM required.
Why roofers and fabrication teams want nuLINK
- Speed & simplicity: Guided workflows and centralized profiles accelerate setup and reduce rework.
- Precision at scale: CNC accuracy with visual verification ensures repeatable quality across teams.
- Maximum uptime: Always-connected service tools keep your folder producing, not waiting.
- Future-ready: Online updates and cloud recovery mean your control stays current for the long run.
