AUTO_RANGE Statement

Within each type of production line (identified by the "set" as defined above) there may be different rules depending on the thickness of the plate. for example, for a given connection angle a thin plate may have a tight V-type of bevel, a thicker plate may (for the same connection angle) require a semi-tight Y-bevel. The thickness intervals with separate rules within a certain "set" are called ranges and are defined by the AUTO_RANGE statement.
Syntax:
|
AUTO_RANGE,<lim_1>,<lim_2>, ... (1...10) |
The attributes have the following interpretation:
|
<lim_i> |
Defines the upper limits of interval 1, 2, They should be given in order of increasing plate thickness. The interval limits will be included in the lower interval. |
|
The number of ranges within one set is restricted to 10. |
|
|
SET |
Defines the set for which the range definition is made. It can be left out if there is only one set. |
The AUTO_RANGE statement must follow the AUTO_SET statement, if any, and can be left out for a set with the same rules for all thicknesses.
