Angle correction database
Parameter to enable the database with angle corrections.
Angle corrections are entered in production mode (Automatic mode). These corrections
are stored in the product program.
The Angle correction database enables the possibility to store these corrections in a
database. In this way corrections that have once been entered for certain bends remain
available for future use in other products.
With this setting enabled, the control checks during production whether corrections for
similar bends are present in the database. If corrections for certain bends are available,
then they will be offered. On other occasions, corrections can be interpolated and
offered.
The correction database is adjusted by entering new corrections during production.
When the database is enabled with this parameter, all new-entered corrections are
stored in the database.
When searching for similar bends, the control searches for bends that have the same
properties as the active bend. The following properties of a bend are compared:
• Material properties
• Thickness
• Die opening
• Die radius
• Punch radius
• Angle
The first five properties of a bend must be exactly the same as the active bend to start a
