Check.jpg NEW: Springback-Compensated LRA Grids

Both VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER now have Springback-Compensated grids in the Tube data, Master Tube data, and the Measured Tube data menus.

The new grids have popup menus that allow you to copy any part of the grid.

Check.jpg NEW: Multi-Elongation Percentage Compensation

VTube-STEP now allows each bend to have a unique tube elongation percentage - which is used to calculate correct CUT LENGTHS and UNBENDING LENGTHS

Use the popup menus in either the PART SETUP or the XYZ grids to get to the setup window.

A new checkbox is added at the bottom of Part Setup to allow this feature to be activated.

If the checkbox is unchecked, then the single Tube Elongation % value is used to calculate elongation for all bends.

Check.jpg FIX: Springback Compensation for Bender Output

When VTube-STEP calculated springback into bender values, it incorrectly doubled the springback values. This has been repaired.

Check.jpg Miscellaneous Changes

  • Dashes and zeros for non-functioning values in the XYZ and LRA grids are now replaced with white spaces.
  • The state of the Automatic Refresh Image checkbox in the Report page was not stored and recalled. Now it is.
  • The image refresh for the report menu was changed to work better on slower computers.
