The new Bend Angle Transfer menu allows VTube to correct bends while still in the bender.<br><br>
 
* The bender forms a bend.  This menu is loaded from the Data Transfer menu in VTube-LASER.<br>
 
* The clamp opens and the bender pauses.<br>
 
* The operator moves the FARO arm next to the bender and measures the single bend.<br>
 
* The bend angle is transferred to the Bend Angle Transfer menu.<br>
 
* The bend angle is sent to the bender control.<br>
 
* The bender control uses the data to close the clamp and adjust the bend angle.<br>
 
  
 
The process is continued until the bend angle is within tolerance.  The workflow is identical to measuring a single bend off the bender.

Check.jpg NEW: Split Bend Feature

Vtube-laser screen 1 67.jpg

VTube uses the Split Bend feature as a powerful way to handle large angle bends. The feature is simple to use, and allows you to scan a large sample of data to ensure that the calculates are precise.




Check.jpg Other Changes

  • Many users never change their HTML templates to remove the temporary graphic logo, so the program is now installed with a blank white logo in that space. This makes the reports more usable out of the box.

  • We added a new video on YouTube that shows how to use the Bend Angle Transfer in correcting in-process bends - while the tube is still in the bender.

  • Some Windows setups do not allow VTube-LASER to store data in the generic "ProgramData" folder, so we changed VTube so that it again uses the personal login folders to store program data.

c:\ProgramData\VTube changed to
c:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\VTube



Check.jpg Issues with this version fixed in newer versions

  • No known issues
