The absolute pre-rotate command is highly optimized to rotate the spindle when the feed carriage is moving away from the part during the last bend.

We have added this programmed delay to allow the operator to ensure that the chuck is off the part before rotating. (This is especially important for non-cylindrical tubes.)

The new command is found in Prebending options.

A value of zero will disable the delay.

To activate this delay, the processlist builder will insert a timer command into the secondary process that controls the absolute pre-rotate during the Feed axis moving away from the bending area.

If the delay value is set to 0 in the Prebend option, then the timer is not inserted into this process.
