New Simplification of User Interface

The user interface was simplified through the joining of two tab menus into one new tab menu:

OLD Tab Menus

NEW Import & Convert SolidWorks Data

The combining of the two menus makes Benderlink much easier to understand. The extraction and conversion is also now performed in the same step, and data is refreshed from SolidWorks every time a new conversion is made.



Recognition of Contiguous Arcs with No Straights

This version of Benderlink can recognize and handle calculations for the special case where the part is made of only arcs and no straight segments in the centerline. This kind of part is typical in push-roll bending. An example is the TAURING bender.
