Abstract

To simplify a commissioning and parameter change in a 3D bending process of wires, a 3D bending device and a 3D bending method for bending a wire are provided. The wire is held by a first leg and a second leg and the legs are moved, via a first to third relative movement device, in a first to third relative movement with a first to third movement axis in order to change, in an adjustable manner independently of one another, torsion angles of the first and second legs and a distance between the central axes of the legs.
