A customer had an issue with sharp-angled bends. This caused us to solve the problem by adding a command that allowed for splitting a very sharp-angled bend into two adjacent half-bends.

This is useful for when a very high bend angle throws its intersection point far from the tube and then creates unreliably high swings in the tangent deviation and bender correction data.

After splitting a bend into two adjacent half-bends, you can use the SPLIT BEND measuring feature to measure the bend angle inside and outside to overcome this problem.

Split Bend Angle Into Two Bends - Slide 2.png



Follow these steps to use with Split Bend Measuring

1 - Select the bend to split in an LRA grid.

2 - Right click.

3 - Choose "Split Selected Bend into Two Bends"

4 - In the Bend Setup tab above the XYZ data, click on Split Bend Setup.

5 - In the Split Bend Setup window, set the STRAIGHT with the ZERO straight length to "Split Bend at Apex" (It will equal the BEND number + 1). Watch the data compress and highlight in the LRA grid when you exit the window.


See VTube-LASER Split Bend Feature for details on the Split Bend measuring feature.
