Extra bending parameters can be found on this page, which displays parameters related to
the part, and depending on the VisiTouch configuration and the type of action performed,
also displays various settings for the current bend. Most of these parameters can also be
found in the Quick access tab.
Material
This is not a sequence parameter, but of course a part parameter.
Each touch on the material’s name selects the next available from
the list of Materials.
Material thickness
The default thickness, defined in Materials, is automatically
displayed when changing material. It is however possible to change
it simply by touching this icon.
If on the other hand, the parameter
Predefined thickn. is set to yes, a touch on
this icon will open a numerical pad as show to
the right, where the operator will be able to
select directly one of the predefined
thicknesses.
This is a part parameter.
Material sigma
The default sigma, defined in Materials, is automatically displayed
when changing material. It is however possible to change it simply
by touching this icon. This is also of course a part parameter.
Back gauge retractation
The back-gauge retraction can be activated/deactivated at its
Default retraction value using this icon. It is possible to modify the
value by touching it. This is a sequence parameter, meaning it can
be modified with each step of the program.
Speed change threshold and bending speed
The distance parameter allows the operator to increase the height
of the speed change point. The speed parameter allows decreasing
the bending speed from its maximum value defined in the machine
parameters.
Bending length / Position offset
This parameter defines the width of the sheet metal part that
will be pinched between the tools. It is used to calculate the
bending force.
If this parameter is not activated (grey), the VisiTouch will not calculate the bending Force
and the Crowning.
This parameter defines the position of the sheet metal in the machine.
