2.1 Automation Options Menu


The "Automatic" button now performs the actions specified in the automation options
window. It can now include all following steps making a bending program, NC-code and
Unfold.
Radpro 2018 R2
2.2 Automatic using sequence template
Automatic using sequence template lets you choose different bend sequence rules while
doing everything automatically.

2.3 Auto sequencing Joggles and Hems


New option for sequence template can now be used to sequence joggle operations before
other bend operations.

2.4 DIN unfolding


Radbend can now correctly apply DIN values from the database unto models with sharp
bends and designed with different bend radius than the result radius. DIN unfold values are
the most common way to describe bending tables. DIN unfold values are measurable bend-
deduction values related to "until outer radius" Flange heights.
Radpro 2018 R2

2.5 Preferred Tools


Manual tool selection is simplified by adding a filter to show only your preferred tools for a
specific material thickness combination.

2.6 Bend process detection


Preferred bending processes can be different for different bends. However, if these bends
are combined in one part, you might want to have just one bending process that is a
compromise. This typically happens if one of the bends is a hem or sharp bend, for which die
bending is impossible.
