Pipe Saddle Layout Calculator vs Bosch Leveling Remote App

Pipe Saddle Layout Calculator is a iPhone app that provides the fitter with the points to make an accurate cut (fish mouth, cope, etc) for piping (cylinder to cylinder) intersections. This app is intended to be used by fitters, welders, fabricators, or anyone who needs to join two metal cylinders at any angle. Are you still carrying that blue book around? Pipe Saddle Layout Calculator is the modern piping blue book. Confused about how to layout cut lines for joining two pieces of pipe? If you are a pipe fabricator, welder, or fitter who needs to make perfect saddle cuts, then this app is for you. Forget books, calculators, compasses, ancient saddle layout procedures, laptops, expensive CAD programs, mathematics or internet access to figure out how to make that perfect saddle joint. Pipe Saddle Layout Calculator is easy. Pipe Saddle Layout Calculator provides the offset layout dimensions for that perfect pipe joint. This calculator works with any size pipe, any angle of intersection, and any wall thickness of pipe. User enters: main pipe, branch pipe, wall thickness (this app considers wall thickness, you don't want to leave too much metal, or take too much off) and branch angle. The calculator does the rest. This calculator produces an on the fly ordinate table of the offsets. The beauty of this app is that it also produces full size pattern templates, so you don't have to measure and layout all of the work points. Now you can print out your pipe pattern templates for any size and any angle intersection. This version outputs patterns configured for an 8.5 X 11 (everyone has access to one of these), 11 X 17, and 24 X 36 printer sizes. So with this app and a 8.5 X 11 printer, the user can still produce any size pipe coping pattern. The calculator is very versatile. Presently input and output is US based imperial and/or metric. Output is feet, or feet and inches, decimal or fractions (to 1/32"). This app has been updated to support metric solutions. User can control how much cut line accuracy he/she wants by setting how many control points are desired (infinite amount, user can get 8 control points, i.e. every 45 degrees or 360 control points, i.e every degree, or more). Most books only give 8 or 16 control points. This app allows an infinite amount. For example, a 2" pipe needs fewer control points than a 48".

The Bosch Levelling Remote app enables you to conveniently control your Bosch Professional levelling tool via Bluetooth® from your smartphone. Using the app, you can control the laser remotely without having to even touch it, thereby increasing productivity and efficiency in your daily levelling tasks. The app can be connected to all Bosch Professional levelling tools (line lasers, combi lasers and rotary lasers) which contain a "C" in the name, for example: • GCL 2-50 C/CG Professional • GCL100-80C/CG Professional • GLL 3-80 C/CG Professional • GLL3-330C/CG Professional • GRL 600 CHV Professional • GRL 650 CHVG Professional • GRL4000-80CHV Professional • GRL4000-80CH Professional • GRL4000-90CHVG Professional • GLL330-80CG Professional • GLL 18V-120-33 CG Professional Main functions when using a GCL or GLL device: • Conveniently control your combi / line laser by setting the operating mode, turning your tool into standby or changing the laser intensity to optimize the laser visibility or battery runtime. • Monitor your tool by checking the battery and device status via the app. • Check for potential external influences and calibration intervals to ensure the accuracy of your line laser (available for selected tools) Main functions when using a GRL device: • Easily control all main functions of your rotary laser such as setting slope, modifying the rotation speed, or putting your device into standby mode • Benefit from app-only features like setting up the partial projection (Mask Mode) or creation of Profiles to save and apply the setting you need • Check the accuracy of your tool and have it corrected automatically We are very pleased to receive your feedback and improvement suggestions for our application.
