Bend-allowance: correction of the X-axis due to sheet shortening after bending. With
this parameter the method for bend-allowance calculation is chosen. ‘Computation’
means the standard formula of the control is used to calculate the bend-allowance.
‘Table’ means a bend-allowance table with correction values can be used. The choice
‘table’ is only available if a bend-allowance table is present on the control.

With this parameter you can choose whether or not you wish to have programmed
values corrected for bend-allowance. This on/off setting only refers to corrections during
product programming in the menu ‘data preparation’. If a numeric program has been
entered with corrections on, the axis corrections are calculated and stored in the
program. These corrections can be viewed and edited in production mode (see
‘Automatic mode’).
Press the key to select the required setting.
This choice has no effect on the post process function in the drawing mode. When the control
uses the post process command to calculate a CNC program from a drawing with bend
sequence, the control will always take bend-allowance into account.
