Revision 1.57Back to VTube-LASER |
NEW: Import Supravision Files
|
Supravision files are stored on Supravision-based measuring centers. Customers that migrate to VTube-LASER from Supravision will not lose any of their project data because you can use Supravision project files to setup VTube-LASER.
|
NEW: Transfer New Values in Supravision Protocol
|
New values are included in Supravision file transfers and Supravision Network transfers from benders (imports/exports/bender corrections):
|
|
NEW: Recall the BENDER MASTER XYZ to Establish the VTube Master
|
You can now ask the bender to give you the MASTER XYZ data if that data exists on the bender.
|
ENHANCED: Bender Setup Redesigned
|
The Bender Setup user interface menu was redesigned.
|
ENHANCED: Negative Lengths or Bend Angles are ZEROED
|
Bender Lengths and angles that calculate negative values are zeroed. |
ENHANCED: Springback Compensation for Corrections
|
The springback compensation values in the Bender Setup menu are now calculated based on the adjustment value alone.
|
NEW: Transfer Master LRA to Setup LRA with Springback Compensation
| When transferring data from the VTube MASTER LRA to the BENDER SETUP LRA, automatic springback compensation is automatically applied if the springback values are non-zero. |
NEW: Part Name in Toolbar
|
The current part name is now displayed in the toolbar below the VTube-LASER logo. |
NEW- Springback Values Transfer from Overbend
|
VTube-LASER can now receive springback data from Overbend with the press of a single button in the Overbend Calculator. |
ENHANCED - Other Changes
