Welcome to Pathfinder
Professional Controls for Folding Machines
Pathfinder is the world's easiest-to-use graphic controller for folding machines. It is the result of years of development by AMS Controls and is intended for both retrofit and new machine applications.
With Pathfinder, manufacturers achieve professional quality and productivity regardless of the machine operator's experience level. New part shapes can be quickly programmed by simply entering the dimensions of the profile. Pathfinder automatically determines the optimum bending sequence so production can start immediately without any trial and error. It is also very easy to find and use existing parts in the part library. With a few keystrokes, an operator can quickly find the desired part even if there are thousands of parts in the library.
Pathfinder also allows customers to finally integrate their trim shops. This is something AMS Controls has been developing for roll forming machines for more than 20 years. Integrated manufacturing results in fewer mistakes and increased productivity. It also provides a wealth of information about what is really happening on the production floor.
Pathfinder Features:
- Graphic part creation - simply type in the dimensions of the part
- Automatic bend sequencing - Pathfinder finds the best way to make the part
- Easy to use part library - lookup parts by category and sub-category or search by name
