__NOTOC__

==[[image:Check.jpg|25px]] ENHANCED: Load and Start Positions with Bend Arm Motion Option (in Pre Bend)==



<table>
<tr>
<td width=400>
CNC Bender Pre Bend has a new option called "Arm to Home Mode" that controls when the bend arm returns home before bending begins.  The goal is optimization of the cycle.
<br><br>
These are the choices:<br><br>

1: Before Move to Load<br>
2: During Move to Load<br>
3: After Move to Load<br>
4: After Chuck Close<br>
5: During Move to Start<br>
6: After Move to Start<br><br>

Use this in conjunction with the Post Bend Release command where you can turn off the bend arm return during release.</td>
