- See VTube-LASER Customer Support Page to download the latest version.
Add CAM2 Measure 10 output for both MASTER and MEASURED XYZ data
- Save CAM2 Measure 10 tube data for import into CAM2.
- Save the MASTER or the MEASURED.
- Save using a Popup menu in the XYZ grid, or save from the the File tab.
Added Split Bend collection feature in Collect Control in STEP mode
- Split bend (for handling 180 degree bends or greater) was available in LASER mode - now it is available in STEP mode too.
- This means that you can also display compress LRA data with two 90s being combined to show a 180 (for example).
New Collection Type Split Bend in STEP Mode
- In STEP mode, you can select an arc section that* becomes the guide for the intrados and extrados - showing VTube where to form the split bend centerline.
- The split construction model now displays in STEP mode.
Split Bend algorithim for extracting the tube centerline in LASER mode is improved
The formula for building the centerline in the split bend area is improved and more reliable.
Added new Radius Table in XYZ pop-up grid for storage of often-used radii
VTube can now output TRUE radius as well as NOMINAL radius values based on the radius table
Fixed slow dragging control windows in STEP mode The End Scan Diameter
The Spin Edit controls in the Measure Setup can now be manually set with the keyboard.
Faster loading and unloading of VTube-LASER persistence files
NEW: Bender Data Output with Full Springback
1 - Bender Communiciation with Full Springback
|
Full springback is now included in direct communications with benders connected to the bender network in VTube. This data responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu. The benefit of this feature is that you can include springback in the original master data for first-time setup of the bender. Note: This feature is accessed from VTube-STEP mode which is included in the VTube-LASER license. |
|
2 - Reports can Output LRA with Full Springback
|
Full springback can now be printed in the reports for first-time setup of benders. This report responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu. This feature also includes the added report tags that allow for the values with springback to be placed anywhere in the report:
And they are used in a report template like this: <vtube_val>Array_L_FullSpringback</vtube_val> |
|
3 - Bender Files Output LRA with Full Springback
|
Full springback is now included in the export of bender files in all formats. This data responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu. Note: This feature is accessed from VTube-STEP mode which is included in the VTube-LASER license. |
|
NEW: "Supplier" Field in Part Setup
|
Some of our customers receive parts from suppliers, so we've added a "Supplier" field in the Part Setup menu. This data is saved in the project files.
<vtube_val>Supplier</vtube_val> |
|
NEW: IMPORT Template Feature in Report Menu
|
The report menu was reorganized and an IMPORT feature was added to simplify the import of REPORT TEMPLATES into your VTube system. Choose the html report to import, and VTube automatically copies it into the system and adds it to the template list. |
|
ENHANCED: New Master XYZ Pop-Up Menu Commands
|
New features in the XYZ pop-up menu adds new commands.
|
|
ENHANCED: New Measured XYZ Pop-Up Menu Commands
|
New features in the XYZ pop-up menu adds new commands.
