Access |
Administrator |
Function
This parameter is used to select the method used for deflection computation.
-
If calibration is selected, deflection is derived from deflection table and deflection factor set.
-
If theory is selected, deflection value is calculated theoretically using stiffness and rigidity factor.
-
If linear is selected, deflection is computed using stiffness of frame and relaxation stiffness values in machine parameter (General parameters → Machine tab).
Description
NA
Stiffness factor

|
Access |
Administrator |
Function
Stiffness factor considered while calculating beam deflection. Changing this parameter will greatly influence bending depth calculation.
NoTE: This parameter is visible only when Theory option is selected in calibration method.

Function
Rigidity factor considered while calculating beam deflection. Changing this parameter will greatly influence bending depth calculation.
NoTE: This parameter is visible only when Theory option is selected in Deflection method parameter.

Angle correction factor
Range |
0.5 to 1.5 |
Default |
1 |
Units |
|
Access |
Administrator |
Function
While entering angle correction, the difference between desired angle and measured angle is multiplied by this parameter value internally. For example, if angle correction factor is 1.1, desired angle is 90 deg and measured angle is 95 deg, the correction is applied for angle difference of 5.5 deg (5x1.1=5.5).
Description
NA

|
Access |
Administrator |
Function
Selecting Basic does two angle correction and then adjusts crowning. Advanced applies angle correction using parabolic approach. It is recommended to use Basic method for machines with hydraulic crowning.
