This window allows you to enter the FIXED and PROPORATIONAL values of the springback formula.  These values can be used in the Springback Compensation Editor formula to calculate overbend necessary to overcome springback during bending.  The values are also used to shorten straights that follow the bends during overbending.

Benderlink for SolidWorks can now output a text file that contains TAURING bender data.

The menu appears like this in Main Setup mode:
Blinksw tauring data mainsetup.jpg

The menu appears like this in Grid mode:
Blinksw tauring data gridsetup.jpg

Features

  1. Automatically builds the TAURING style report from the internal Benderlink data
  2. Allows for simple editing (add/remove rows, etc.)
  3. Autofill columns of data
  4. Keeps a list of Profile Names in a drop down list
  5. Builds TAURING data files to disk
  6. Loads TAURING transfer data files from disk



Overbend bendersetup.jpg

The standard springback compensation formula is: 

New Bend Angle = ((Theoretical Bend Angle * Proportional) + Fixed)
