The Help shows a bit of a sample of a Bend Calculation Table. It mentions there is a default folder in the installation path for BCTs, but there are no actual BCTs in said folder. Does anyone have a live sample BCT, possibly even with a part that it drives? Resellers must have something like this. Anyone like a line credit in a book?
Hi Matt,
I have attached a SW2011 sheetmetal part and BCT that drives it. Its from the 2011 Whats New models that we get being a VAR. The BCT is to a DIN 6935 standard but will give you an idea about how they work. The table simply assigns a bend allowance based on if a bend angle falls between a range of values.
Hope this helps!
I have created a example app that outputs bend allowance table in SWx usable text format. Currently it does not do anything useful as it was just experiment (altough it should calculate bend tables using above mentioned DIN standard), but with slight modifications it would be usable (for example adding controls where user can add calculation formulas or table for editing). You can download this experimental from: http://spn-technologies.fi/download.html
