CRIPPA Benders

CRIPPA benders are built in Italy and marketed worldwide. Customers report that they like these benders very much. They are often all electric with all actuators servo-controlled.

VTube Support for CRIPPA Benders

The new Crippa export capability allows for easy export to Crippa UII software. The format is a text file that is compatible with most Crippa benders that were released in early 2012 and on.

The bender data format is similar to the standard format, except that, for most Crippa benders, the rotations move in the opposite direction than most other benders. (Crippa standard: Clockwise is positive). VTube automatically builds the data, including reversed rotations into the SPF file.

The format includes the bender data and the cut length. Here is an example:

R103=50.80     R133=0.00      R163=90.00     
R104=50.80     R134=-135.00   R164=90.00     
R105=50.80     R135=-1.00     R165=90.00     
R106=50.80     R136=-90.00    R166=90.00     
R107=50.80     R137=-90.00    R167=90.00
