SIZE Statement

A certain swage type may occur in several (nominal) sizes. The "extra plate" required by the swage is different for different sizes and may also differ with the plate thickness. The SIZE statement is valid for the type of the last preceding PROFILE statement and may occur in any number.
|
SIZE, <height> |
|
|
<height> |
This is one nominal height of the current swage type (roughly equal to H in the figure above - in most cases there is only one size per swage type). |
|
WIDTH |
The nominal width of the swage (dimension D in Figure 2:1 in Size Compensation for Swaging) |
|
UPPER_WIDTH |
The nominal width of the upper part of the swage (dimension D1 iin Figure 2:1 in Size Compensation for Swaging). |
|
R1 |
The radius between the mould plane of the panel and the swage (R1 in in Figure 2:1 in Size Compensation for Swaging). |
|
R2 |
The radius in the upper part of the swage (R2 in in Figure 2:1 in Size Compensation for Swaging). |
|
LOWER_LIM |
The compensation for the swage may vary with the plate thickness and is supposed to be constant within a certain thickness interval. This is the lower limit of the first interval. |
|
UPPER_LIM |
Upper limit of a thickness interval (and lower limit of the next). |
|
COMP |
The size of the expansion of the plate for this swage in the current plate thickness interval. |
