Mark/burn indications for bent profiles' end types
In the robot input files for bent profiles, it is possible to indicate whether an end type should be marked or burned (cut), depending on whether the profile has additional bend length or not. The end type is marked if the profile has additional bend length, and burned if it does not have additional bend length.
Additional bend length can be defined for bent profiles in the Create Production Information dialog.
To use this feature, the following keywords (variables) can be added to the robot layout file (*.ind) which is used for generating the robot input files for the individual profiles, in the lines for the end types:
-
ET1B_M for the 1st end type
-
ET2B_M for the 2nd end type
-
ET3B_M for the 3rd end type
-
ET4B_M for the 4th end type

Mark/burn indicators defined for the 1st and 2nd profile end types
In the robot input files for the individual profiles, the keywords will be resolved to value 0 if the profile has additional bend length, and to 1 if it does not have additional bend length.
This feature is primarily meant to be used with shell frames.
