Where is the Mandrel Lube Option?
|
The lube feature is only available inside the Bend Option cells of the FRB menu. This allows an operator to control mandrel lube for each bend.
|
|
Mandrel Lube Start and Stop
|
This feature works with the Mandrel Lube Start and Mandrel Lube Stop angle settings. These control the start and stop of the mandrel lube based upon the bend angle.
|
|
Why Does the Mandrel Lube "Stop Angle Within" Value Work This Way?
|
The "stop within" value is always relative to the final bend angle so that if the start and stop values are set to ZERO, then the operator can know for sure that the ENTIRE bend is lubricated - even when the bend angle is adjusted.
