New - Automatically Reduce the LAST Length with Bend Reduction
Benderlink for SolidWorks already reduced the cut-length. But now it also reduces the last length of tube in the bender data using the Bend Reduction formula from the Bend Reduction Editor.
New - Color Coding for Quick Identification of MASTER or INSPECTION
From this point on, the user interface will use color to distinquish between MASTER and INSPECTED.
- BLUE will be identified with MASTER data.
- GREEN will be identified with INSPECTED data.
New - Swap Ends Feature
New pulldown menus are added to Benderlink for SolidWorks that allows you to swap the tube end for end. Both the MASTER and INSPECTED data can be swapped.
When the swap occurs, the data is recalculated like this:
- The LRA (bender) data is recalculated from XYZ data.
- The Bend Reduction formula is used to recalculate the last length reduction at the other end of the tube.
New - Two Save Buttons
We've added two save buttons rather than one in order to skip the modal dialog that required a choice for which type of data you were saving.
New - Log Buttons
New buttons are now on the top of each log.
- The SAVE buttons allow you to quickly save the MASTER or INSPECTED data.
- The CLEAR buttons allow you to quickly clear the MASTER or INSPECTED data.
- The LEFT and RIGHT buttons are new features that allow you to copy the data in either log to the other log.
New - Calculations After Open File and Load
The Open File feature now performs the following calculations after loading a file:
- The LRA (bender) data is recalculated from XYZ data.
- The Bend Reduction formula is used to recalculate the last length reduction at the other end of the tube.
