;

; This is supplied as a sample only. Edit with your own data and formulas as req
uired.
;
; Edit the values and bend equations as required.
; Use 'File - Save As Text' to create an ASCII bend table file
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------;
; Notations used in tables:
;
;
; ';' = remark character
;
; '*' = start of a new table
;
; '/' = special character
;
U = units of tolerance; thickness; bend radius; an
d correction values
;
m; cm; mm; micron; inch; ft;or yd
;
S = sheet thickness
;
R = bending radii
;
A = opening angle
;
T1 = Tolerance (+/-) for sheet thickness S (valid f
or the whole file)
;
T2 = tolerance for equal min and max bending radius
R
;
The T2 tolerance is only utilized at the minim
um and maximum
;
bending radii R in the tables. For model bend
radii that fall
;
between two values existing in the table; the
resultant
;
correction value X is determined by linear int
erpolation
;
using the appropriate x values in the table.
;
T3 = tolerance for equal min and max opening angle
A
;
The T3 tolerance is only utilized at the minim
um and maximum
;
opening angles A in the tables. For model ope
ning angles
;
that fall between two values existing in the t
able; the
;
resultant correction value X is determined by
linear
;
interpolation using the appropriate X values i
n the table.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------;
; The correction value X is applied as follows:
;
; L = A + B - x
;
; (L = unfolded length in flat pattern)
; (A = length of side A (outside measurement of bendingzone))
; (B = length of side B (outside measurement of bendingzone))
;
;-----------------------------------------------------------------------

;
; Angle A expressed in degrees.
;
;----------------------------------------------------------------------;
;
;UNITS for tolerance; thickness; bend radius and correction values
; use Autodesk Inventor standard units such as 'in' and 'mm'
