This page describes how to use VTube-LASER to correct NUMALLIANCE benders.

VTube-LASER has an export option for NUMALLIANCE MES files that is used to correct the NUMALLIANCE benders.

Note: NUMALLIANCE benders only require the measured data for corrections.

Measure the tube in VTube-LASER, then send the MEASURED tube data to the bender control, and it will then perform the correction.

Follow the steps below.

These steps assume that you have measured the tube and have measured tube data to send to the NUMALLIANCE. Click on the "Measured Tube" button in the navigation pane.

Choose the EXPORT tab menu.

Choose the NUMALLIANCE CSV File option in the pulldown list.

click the Export button.

It is very important to enable the Positive Rotation options for most NUMALLIANCE benders. They normally rotate positive Clockwise when standing from the front of the bender.

If this setting is incorrect, then the rotations will be corrected in the wrong direction and cause the part to move further away from the nominal master part.

Click on the Set the Filename button.

Choose the export path in the Path Manager.
