• Import Excel XYZ coordinates and radii from Excel file.

The Overbend Calculator is new to STEP. Press the Overbend Calculator button at the bottom of the Part Setup screen to automatically calculate the fixed and proportional springback values.

Full springback is now included in direct communications with benders connected to the bender network in VTube. This data responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu.

The benefit of this feature is that you can include springback in the original master data for first-time setup of the bender.

Note: This feature is accessed from VTube-STEP mode which is included in the VTube-LASER license.

Full springback can now be printed in the reports for first-time setup of benders. This report responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu.

This feature also includes the added report tags that allow for the values with springback to be placed anywhere in the report:

• Array_L_FullSpringback
• Array_A_FullSpringback

And they are used in a report template like this:

<vtube_val>Array_L_FullSpringback</vtube_val>

Full springback is now included in the export of bender files in all formats. This data responds to the Fixed and Proportional springback values in the Part Setup menu.

Note: This feature is accessed from VTube-STEP mode which is included in the VTube-LASER license.
