Offset Branch Developer
Publisher Description
Sheet metal pattern developing tool for offset and straight cylindrical branches
As a fabricator of 40+ years, the last 30 or so as the workshop manager, I have constantly used trigonometry etc. to calculate cones, segmental bends and much more. Nowadays I am constantly asked by the fabricators to calculate developed lengths etc. to save them the time and effort of laying it out. I have developed this app so that they can do it for themselves and therefore save “MY TIME”.
With this Offset Branch app you can quickly develop the pattern for the branch pipe shape and the pattern for the shell hole shape.
All of the branch pattern developments are for set on pipes and hole pattern developments are for the outside diameter of the set on pipe.
If you need to work to the inside diameter of the branch for the hole pattern, then you can develop the branch using the outside diameter of the branch and shell as normal and mark out the branch, then redevelop the hole using the inside diameter of the branch and the outside diameter of the shell. The inside of the branch will then be flush with the edge of the hole.
From the front screen select the type of branch development that you require.
On the next screen select either, paper wrap pattern development or mark on plate pattern development. A paper wrap pattern template is commonly used on preformed tube i.e. 10"nb etc, while a plate pattern is marked directly onto the flat plate material before rolling.
On the next screen enter the required dimensions etc. and press the develop button
The developed length of the branch circumference and pitch of the developing lines are displayed at the top of the results page with the true developed lengths shown below enabling you to mark out the pattern quickly and easily.
The grid line dimensions for the hole pattern are displayed below the hole pattern drawing as well as the dimension between the shell center line and the branch center line i.e. Dim Z. This pattern can be marked out directly onto the outside of the rolled shell.
Please Note! on the results screen the drawings for the branch and hole patterns are representative only and show the general shape of the true patterns
Thank you for purchasing this app, I hope that from your feedback/comments I will be able to add extra relevant features and amendments in future editions.
