AutoFormR8已经发布新增功能说明
New Features
General
Context Menus
At veral places the context menus are ud for quick access of often needed functionalities. Many list elements offer a helpful context menu.
Also in the 3D view there are some uful functions accessible via a right mou button click
Segment Editor
The new Segment Editor is ud to define ctions along a curve. This editor is ud for:
Formcheck
New gmentation of Form Flanges
mssqlVariable Automatic Outer Fills and Variable Extensions
Drawbead Curves
Hemming
Measurement in 2D Plots
Radii and angles can now be measured in 2D plots. Selection is done in context menu of plot windows.
Progressive Dies
Blank Plan - Activation & Definition
Blank Plan is available as soon as Strip on Part stage (to get Operation Boundary) is defined and a ProgDie Press is lected on Production Line.
Blank Plan is defined in context menu of Blank Outline on the Plan stage > Plan.
Blank Plan - No Webs
To facilitate initial cost calculation no webs in Strip are needed anymore to define a Blank Plan.
Blank Plan Overcuts
scandinavian
The Blank Plan Overcuts are defined per default (Plan stage > Settings > Blank Plan Overcuts: 2 mm) and enable a more stable trimming simulation.
Blank Plan - Symmetric
Blank Plan could be defined symmetric (activate U Symmetry) when Symmetry was define on Part stage > Import > Symmetry & Part Type.
Process > Multi-Station Tools
In R8 we have a new concept for multi-station tools. For each multi-station tool (except automatically added lifters) the ur can optionally decide to define the geometry parately for each station. If the geometry is defined on the stations, a list with a link for each station is shown, white for stations without geometry and blue for stations with geometry.memorystick
Process > Final Part
When using notch cuts for final paration, it is not easy to define which part must be kept after trimming.
To improve this, the ur can now input the point to define what part should be kept.
Restart - No Restrictions
With R8 Restart for Progressive Dies works in the same manner as for line dies, i.e. all limitations of R7 are now obsolete. Restart - Multi-Station Tools
Regular Multi-Station Tools are always blocked in Restart designs.
Multi-Station Tools with On Station definition may be modified dependent on the station their geometry belongs to. If a multi-station tool has any geometry defined on a station that was already computed it is completely blocked, otherwi modifications are allowed. In addition, multi-station cams are blocked if any blocked tools are attached to them.
Full Strip
This new feature Full Strip takes into account the Ramp-up strokes (non permanent production conditions) and provides a simulation, evaluation and navigation approach which supports the urs to focus on parts, which are produced under permanent production conditions.
Evalution - Force Distribution Map
The feature shows the currently acting tool forces and moments at the current time step.
Trimline Optimization - Automatic Restart
Like for Line Dies Trimline Optimization automatically determines restart point which speeds up calculation.
Application Menu
Utilities in Application Menu
Press, Material and Lubrication File Generators, Standard Editor and Press and Guideline converters are now available in Utilities.
Open and Complete Standard (... of former relea!)
This new option opens a standard file, e.g. of R7, and adds all missing parameters (newly available in R8) for the given type, which did not yet exist in R7.
This allows easy and fast conversion with automatic completion of Standards of previous software releas!
Note: The option only converts the standards R7 to R8 and does NOT add any new parameter! Standards - Export
Parameters of a Standard are always exported in the same order, which helps to compare two different (exported) standards. Export > Geometry > Surface
Extremely fast lection of surface(s) for export by allowing ur to work in Designer, in 3D view and in Export dialog in parallel without hiding, closing or blocking one of the elements! And status of current lection (amount of faces lected for export) is dynamically updated in lower area of Export dialog!
Export>Export Into Specific Coordinate System
All objects of Geometry, Results and Compensation can be exported with respect to any coordinate system available in the design. Default coordinate system is the Product system.
Export
Default parameters for Offt / Substitution Skins calculation are now configurable within the system configuration file (l).
Update QuickLink
Press Line information can be loaded directly with Update QuickLink option in ca that the zip file contains the press data file and the corresponding control file adapted.
3D View
Sheet as Solid
Sheet is displayed as Solid with thickness and side walls, which gives many advantages like easier evaluation of top and bottom layer results or easier understanding of ctions.

Part Stage
Import >Tool Surfaces & Additional Geometries - Reordering
All elements in Tool Surface & Additional Geometries can be grouped, e.g. by operation, or ordered or alphabetically sorted (context menu).
Import > STL Data > Reduce
月饼的英文
When STL files are lected in the Import dialog, the option STL Data Reduce is offered to reduce the size of the imported data.
Import > Binary STL Data
Binary STL data can be imported now.
Import Invisible Geometric Elements
In Preferences > Miscellaneous the option Import - Invisible Geometric Elements could be activated to import invisible faces and curves.
Note: NOT working for VDAFS and of cour for mesh formats!
Import > Automatic Rounding
In Part stage > Import > Tolerances & Settings Automatic Rounding for positioning and tipping can be switched off. This influences the following results:
Part stage > Tip
Plan stage > Plan > Directions
Plan stage > Plan > Directions > > Tip Editor
Die Face stage > all Tip pages
Import > Thickness Direction
Sheet Thickness Direction is defined with Part import by pushing Confirm or Flip.
Import > Coordinate System Editor
The Coordinate System Editor got new functions for easier and more detailed definition of a coordinate system.
Import > Drag & Drop
Drag & Drop of single and multiple files works now for all kind of geometries.
Global Fillet for All Imported Parts and Tools
A geometry list in Part stage > Fillet allows for each imported Part and Tool to activate Global Fillet and to define the appropriate radius.
Formcheck
Add a cut out area - Multilection
Add a cut out area is supported by multilection and the result is a list of individual cut out areas.
Blank Positioning
This new option allows to position the Blank in all dimensions and to rotate it.
Boundary Fill - Edit Fill Spine
The Fill Spine of each Boundary Fill can be modified by opening the Curve Editor (Context Menu > Edit ).
Add Boundary Fill
Check Generate for Boundary Fill activates the option Add Boundary Fill in the context menu of each
surface in 3D view. Estimated Forces
Tool forces (for punch and binder and total force) are displayed in Estimated Forces. Force Ratio Curve is displayed in Feasibility Diagram.

Bend Plan - Multi Step Bending
Bend Plan allows the definition of multi step bending.
Approximate Form Forces per OP - Update
When Formcheck is re-calculated with new Outer Holding Condition Approximate Form Forces per OP are updated.
OP Color Definition
Preferences > 3D Colors allows to color of the first 4 blanking operations, the first 8 draw / form-trim / trim operations and the hemming operation.
Trim Plan - Tipping
Tipping of Trim Plan ( only in Outer Trim!) can be t dependent to any given tipping and is therefore applied to all Trim Plans.
In former Releas the Trim Plan was visualized in Part Tipping, which sometimes lead to a mismatch between part geometry and the corresponding cutting tools (especially under symmetrical conditions).
In R8 this behavior was improved such that scrap pieces are assigned to a part and the according trim tool geometries are tipped due to the PU operation tipping they are belonging to.
sx是什么Trim Plan - Tipping of Trim Tools
Trim Tools are now tipped according to their Operation tipping.
Trim Plan - Automatic
In Settings > Autoplan the automatic creation of a Trim Plan during Autoplan can be activated.
Max Trim Segment Length (Settings > Automatic Trim Plan Constraints) is taken into account for gmentation.
Trim Plan > Draw-In - 3D Curve
Now, not only a 2D but also a 3D Curve can be lected for Draw-In in Trim Plan.
CostEstimator
