Summary of Enhancement Information

  • This version retains both the XYZ and YBC data intact. There is no forced conversion in one direction or another between the two data types.
  • Now ALL data found in an FIF file is converted to the Supravision format.
  • Distance data can be automatically converted to the other unit (Millimeters to Inches, or Inches to Millimeters).
  • Improved error handling.

NEW Conversion Features

NEW for Eaton Leonard XYZ Data



In addition to the XYZ points and bend RADII...


  • NEW - Properly skip REFERENCE points in the XYZ data. (Reference points are not intersection or end points. They are not used to define the shape of the tube.)


  • NEW - Retain XYZ data as it exists in the FIF file. No longer attempt a recalc from YBC to XYZ. This allows measuring centers to be sure to retain original XYZ MASTER data during conversion.


NEW for Eaton Leonard YBC Data



In addition to the YBC data...

  • NEW - Retain YBC data as it exists in the FIF file. No longer attempt a recalc from XYZ to YBC. This allows measuring centers to retain original YBC bender setup data during conversion.

NEW for Eaton Leonard SPEED Data



  • NEW - Conversion of YBC axes speeds: 1 - 8

NEW for YBC FUNCTION Data



  • NEW - Conversion of all YBC FUNCTION Bits (12345678)

NEW for YBC SPECIAL FUNCTION Data



  • NEW - Conversion of all YBC FUNCTION STOP and LAST Bits

NEW Eaton Leonard SETUP Data to SUPRAVISION PROCESS Data



NEW PROCESS VALUES CONVERTED:

  • NEW - Default Radius (from first radius level)
  • NEW - End A Diameter
  • NEW - End B Diameter

NEW Eaton Leonard TOOL Data to SUPRAVISION MACHINE DATA



Handles Up to 9 Radius Levels - EACH LEVEL can contain:

  • NEW - Radius
  • NEW - Fixed Springback
  • NEW - Proportional Springback
  • NEW - Clamp Length
  • NEW - Clearance Feed
  • NEW - Clearance Angle

NEW Eaton Leonard Setup Data to SUPRAVISION MACHINE DATA



  • NEW - Ymin
  • NEW - Interference Zone 1
  • NEW - Interference Zone 2
  • NEW - Load Position
  • NEW - Load Offset
  • NEW - Y Position Tolerance
  • NEW - Pressure Die Open Code
  • NEW - Boost Delay

NEW Eaton Leonard Extended Setup Data to SUPRAVISION MACHINE DATA



  • NEW - Up to 99 EXTENDED setup values are automatically converted

Automatic Conversion of Units

NEW - All distance values can be automatically converted to the opposite unit during conversion.

Note: This does not apply to the EXTENDED Setup data, as Supravision does not attempt to convert these values between units.
