Fixed Bugs Solver Reduction of Constant Line Bead Force Factors with Gap Controlled Binder When using a drawbead of the type Constant Line Bead positioned between a tool set including one tool with Support Type Gap Controlled, e.g. Die and gap controlled Binder, the restraining and uplifting forces were dependent on the gap height: the bigger the gap the lower the drawbead forces are.
