Outline

Outlines of Spring in INCSolver:

•  Added a new type for the “Single spring" bends

•  Added a new type for the "Double spring" bends

•  Added the ability for the user to set the default control in config

Description

•  New types named Single spring (bend) and Double spring (bend) were added under the Draw Type list

•  The user can select the desired type and the program provides

default parameters by the type chosen

Description of Single Spring

•  Single spring: The Pad moves

until it meets the blank This is the close stage

•  Next, the Upper tool starts moving

to the home position

•  Tool Travel Velocity allows the

user to set proper tool’s velocity

•  Pad Close Velocity allows the user

to set the proper pad velocity

•  Pad Force allows the user to set

the proper pad force

•  Apply: The program copies the

tools automatically to complete the setting

•  Report: The program allows the

user to review the formability report

Description of Double Spring

•  Double spring: There are two

tool bend stages and the user must specify the two bend tools

•  Tool U Velocity allows the user to

set tool U’s velocity

•  Tool L Velocity allows the user to

set tool L’s velocity

•  First bend: Switch option is used

to set which tool is at the first bend The default tool name is Tool L and Tool U

•  Pad Force allows the user to set

the pad’s force

•  Click Apply and the program will

copy the tools automatically to complete the setting

•  Click Report and the program will

allow the user to review the formability report

Description

The user can add some control parameters in default config and

can set them as the default
