Flange length
|
Sets the length of the segment in the direction of
the bending angle.
|
Front distance edge
|
Sets the front offset in the direction towards the
reference edge. Positive values mean that inwards the segment becomes smaller.
|
Back edge distance
|
Sets the rear offset in the direction towards the
reference edge. Positive values mean that inwards the segment becomes smaller.
|
Bent Radius
|
Sets the radius of the bend relative to the neutral
fiber (half of the plate thickness). To avoid problems with the volume modeler,
the radius should always be a little bit more that half of the plate thickness.
|
Inner Radius
|
When on, the radius value is applied to the inside
radius versus the neutral fiber (center).
|
Bend Angle
|
Sets the angle of the bend relative to the reference
segment (reference edge).
|
Unfolding Correction Factor
|
The unfolding is carried out using this correction
factor. The correction is multiplied with half of the plate thickness.
- K=0 – Unfolds on the
inner radius
- K=1 – Unfolds on the
center
- K=2 – Unfolds on the
outer radius
This correction factor is used for the whole bent plate.

Flange Length Calculation
|
Selects the method for calculating the length of the
butt straps to be added.
-
Only flange length - Calculates from the
end of the bending segment.
-
From intersection outer edge -
Calculates from the outside edge of the base plate.
-
From intersection inner edge -
Calculates from the inside edge of the base plate.
-
From intersection center lines -
Calculates from the center line of the base plate up to the end of the butt
strap.

Click to rotate the current plate edge including the
subordinate plate edges in a positive direction around the reference edge. The
rotation is effected with the angle specified in the neighboring input field.

Click to rotate the current plate edge including the
subordinate plate edges in negative direction around the reference edge. The
rotation is effected with the angle specified in the adjacent input field.
