Generated Ben d Area
In the example, Via and Package Keepouts were selected with oversize values. When the bend area
geometry is created, the keepout areas are generated based on the bend area outline. Expansion, or
oversizing will occur if a value greater than 0 is entered. Negative values are not allowed. The expansion
occurs along the same plane, or runs parallel to the bend line.
All of the Bend Area objects are also collected together to form a single group. The group name is
defined by the Bend Area Name. Single entities in the bend area cannot be modified, the entire bend
group must be managed through the Edit Bend Area function.
The Bending Data Order defines the sequence number for bending the final product. In some instances,
the sequence of bends is required to obtain the proper assembly position of the design.
