; This is supplied as a sample only. Edit with your own data and formulas as required.
;
; 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; and 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 for the whole file)
; T2 = tolerance for equal min and max bending radius R
; The T2 tolerance is only utilized at the minimum 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 interpolation
; 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 minimum and maximum
; opening angles A in the tables. For model opening angles
; that fall between two values existing in the table; the
; resultant correction value X is determined by linear
; interpolation using the appropriate X values in 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.
;
