VTube Rectangular Tubes
|
|
| VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER can handle rectangular tube shapes as well as cylindrical. |
VTube-STEP
|
VTube can draw rectangular or square tubing. The dimensional controls are in the Part Setup menu of both STEP and LASER modes: |
|
Profile Shapes
Square TubeSet Width1 and Width2 to the same values to draw square tube. |
|
Rectangular - Bending "Easy Way"This profile orientation is referred to as the "easy way" bending in the tubing industry. The reason is because this orientation is easier to bend than a profile rotated 90 degrees to this. |
|
Rectangular - Bending "Hard Way"You can switch the values in the Width1 and Width2 to rotate the tube shape into the "hard way" bending method. |
|
Profile Rotations
Square TubeSet the Rectangular Angle to rotate the profile of a square tube relative to the plane of the first bend. |
|
Rectangular TubeThe same rotation feature works for rectangular tubing. |
|
Magic View & Converter
|
We recommend Magic View & Converter to import and view CATIA notes files. (This is only a viewer program.)
