Single Spring & Double Spring
INCSolver

Date: May 15th, 2014


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.
