The .bin sounds like a CDR-Win image file that IsoBuster should be able to open, and export. I however don't know if the free version of IsoBuster is able to export from image files since I've never tried it.
Complexity of incoherent design.

Use Daemon Tools or Alcohol 120% and make a virtual drive. You then mount the images one at a time onto the drive.

You can use WinImage to open the .iso file and read the content of it and extract it.

You can use Daemon-Tools to mount the .iso in a fake/virtual CD/DVD-drive.

Download MagicDisc Virtual CD/DVD-ROM. mount .cue file as virtual cd. Of course, you can burn bin/cue onto cd with magiciso built-in ISO burner.
