Push Bending Profile Table

About Push Bend Profile Tables

This is a sample Push Bend Profile Table. Each profile row contains a profile setup for a given radius. An unlimited number of profile values can be entered. Using this method of calculation, it is possible to calculate different Push Bends by indicating the new bend angles.

Because we use this method of calculation, it is possible to correct push bent parts using measuring center connections. Correct the bend value, and the push bend values are automatically calculated during AutoBuild.

Loading the Profile Table Menu

The Profile Table Setup is entered from the FRB screen only. The button is to the right in the button toolbar at the top.

The button is labeled "PB Profile" which stands for "Push Bending Profile."

Profile Values

Grid Describing the Profile Value Names

Value Name	Description
Profile Name	The name is how the profile is displayed and selected in the Bend Options.
Arm Angle	This is the final angle of the arm during push-bending.
Arm vAdjust	This allows the velocity of the bend arm to be adjusted by a percentage of the original calculated velocity.
Feed Position	This is how far the carriage must travel to achieve the "@ Degrees" value.
Feed Velocity	This is the velocity of the carriage during the bend. The velocity of the carriage is used to calculate a starting bend arm motion speed.
@ Degrees	This is the angle of the tube that is achieved by the "Feed Position" value above.
