The first correction reduced the profile deviations so that only one deviation peaked at 0.012 inches.  All the other deviations where half that value or better.  The End-A length deviation was 0.000 inches, and the bending technician trimmed the other end using the "End-B Trim" value in the VTube-LASER inspection page.  He remeasured the final part which was confirmed to be completely inside tolerance.<br><br>

CRIPPA benders are built in Italy and marketed worldwide. Customers report that they like these benders very much. They are often all electric with all actuators servo-controlled.

Contents

CRIPPA UII Control software

The CRIPPA Windows software allows for complete programming of bender setup.

VTube-LASER Support for Crippa Bender Setup and Corrections

VTube-LASER communicates with the CRIPPA UII software using the Supravision Network protocol.

Communications are fully bidirectional - you can send and recall data.

It is possible to send new part data to the Crippa, and to correct existing parts easily with the Crippa communications.

(Crippa added this capability in late 2014.)

VTube-STEP Support for CRIPPA Bender SPF Files

VTube-STEP can export Crippa export capability allows for easy export to Crippa UII software. The format is a text file that is compatible with most Crippa benders that were released in early 2012 and on.

VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER Support for older CRIPPA Benders without Supravision Network Support

For CRIPPA benders that do not allow for Supravision Network protocol connections, VTube can also load and modify CRIPPA MPF file format. (VTube version v2.7)
