A new End-Scan Fit window gives information about how many points were used in the end-trim, and the span of all the point positions.  Higher point counts with lower spans indicate a better data set for end-trim.

Revision 1.63

Back to VTube-LASER

Vtube-laser 1 63.jpg



Check.jpg NEW: Select and Configure any number of Reports

Vtube-laser report templates list.jpg

The Report menu was redesigned so that operators choose from a list of report templates to show any one of several reports.

  • Give each report template a name that is linked to an external report template file.

  • Change the list (Add, Delete, Move the template up or down).

  • Edit any template in the included Notepad++ editor (installs with v1.63).

  • Explore the folder that contains the templates.

  • There is no limitation on the number of templates allowed.

  • The report template setup is stored local to the computer (not in project files).

Check.jpg NEW: Added LENGTH grid in the Inspection Menu

Vtube-laser length grid closeup.jpg

The new Length grid shows the MASTER, MEASURED, and differences between the two.

Use these values to know how much to change the pre-bending material cut length.

The Crosscheck values were moved into this grid. (Crosscheck is a measure of the straight line from end A to end B.)

Check.jpg Other Changes

  • Updated the graphics engine for faster redraws.

  • Added more report values - master length, measured length, delta between measured and master, bender setup LRA

  • Updated the manual and help file.

  • Now include the Notepad++ editor with the installation of VTube-LASER for editing HTML Report Templates.

  • New graphics images in the Measure Setup menu to make the menus easier to identify quickly.

  • Opened the end-scan tolerance for radius segment scanning to 10 times the tolerance for regular end-scans. This allows for measuring highly deformed cylinders inside a radius.

  • Diameter measures now use the Cylinder scan rate filter setup values.

  • Diameter measures automatically enable only the SCANNED and CALCULATED data on the screen.
