Revision 2.8

Release Date: Not Released Yet

• Back to VTube-LASER
• Back to VTube Software Updates (for LASER Mode)

This is a MAJOR breakthrough for predicting veracity of cylinder measurements within VTube-LASER.

The UNISCAN DCF feature divdes the cylinder surface data into two groups, then calculates the cylinder data and intersection points TWICE to verify repeatability.

The Point Repeatability value is reported in the Cylinder Fit window. If this value is too high, then VTube-LASER will warn you with a yellow Cylinder Fit Data window and unique sound. This allows you to remeasure the cylinder to guarantee that the measure repeats.

This version of VTube will allow you to choose to report software errors directly to our account at MantisHub.

This service will allow us to track bug issues with VTube-STEP and VTube-LASER.

The Default Tolerance Ends value is in the Inspection Data menu.

It allows you to set the end length default values separately from the tangent point / midpoint tolerance values.

Two new array values are available for reports: AVERAGE deviation and MAXIMUM deviation.

The new commands are

• array_dev_tmt_average
  
• array_dev_tmt_maximum

See the example result in the report on the right, and the report template source to create this table shown below.

The process for corrections to Winton WMC files were clarified with dialogs that make it very clear what VTube-LASER Bender Setup is doing during the Winton WMC correction process.

1 - NEW HELP DIALOGS

Steps 2 and 5 are new. They carefully explain what is happening during the correction process.

2 - NEW BACKUP CREATED

Step 5 also explains that a BACKUP file is created during the process. This allows operators to always recover to the previous data if something goes wrong in the correction process. (The creation of a backup file is new in this version.)

Immediately after the user presses the Auto Correction button, this dialog appears (see step 2 below):

Immediately after the user presses the Exit and Save setup data button, this dialog appears (see step 4 below):

New Process Flow for Winton WMC Correction

This image shows the overall process for correction of Winton WMC files.

The Japanese translation of the UI was updated from version 2.6.

The new Cut Plane control (with the Diameter Cut Plane features) and the new Shortcut Key window is now translated into Japanese.
