3. SAFEGUARDING
3.1 ACTIONS TO PREVENT HAZARDS
WARNING
• The employer must rigidly adhere to the following prior to use of the machine.
Part of someone’s body may enter the danger zone during operation, which may
result in personal injury or death.
(1) On a servo drive press machine, two-hand RUN buttons do not function as
safety devices. It is necessary to use a combination of presence sensing
devices (e.g., light curtains) and side guards to safeguard the servo drive
press machine point of operation at all times, including during setup and
maintenance.
(2) Safeguarding measures must be taken by the user for the point of operation
that are the most appropriate for the user’s operation.
(3) When installing material feeders (such as a coil line, a destack feeder, and/
or a robot), product removal devices, or other peripheral devices, the user
must provide safety fences or enclosures in accordance with applicable
safety regulations and laws for that equipment.
(4) This press machine has been manufactured based upon it being operated
by one person at an operation position located in front of the press
machine. When an assistant operator is involved, or other persons may
have access to any operation zone or danger zone, you must provide safe-
guarding measures so that no part of the body of the assistant operator or
other persons can get inside the danger zone.
(5) Confirm that sections related to safety, guarding, and safety devices are
used in a way which is effective for the work of your company, and that they
are properly maintained, calibrated, and always in use.
(7) Only properly trained personnel should be permitted to use machinery and
have access to danger zones.
19
Section A SAFETY 3. SAFEGUARDING
A presence sensing device detects interrupted light beams and then outputs an Immediate
Stop signal to the press machine. Accordingly, as long as the presence sensing device is
properly calibrated and functioning properly, if a light beam has been interrupted the slide will
immediately stop in all modes of operation and the servo motor power will be turned off.
See 4.5 PRESENCE-SENSING DEVICES AND OPERATION CONDITIONS (pg. 195).
In case there is a space wide enough for the body of a person or a part of it to remain or enter
between the presence sensing device and the press machine, there will be a supplemental
optical axis.
When the light beam of the supplemental optical axis is interrupted, the slide will make an
immediate stop. Furthermore, while the light beam is being interrupted, the slide will not start
in any operation mode.
WARNING
• Never change the mounting location of a presence sensing device. Presence
sensing devices have been mounted in specific locations in order to maintain the
appropriate distance from the point of operation.
• The upper die front-to-back dimension must not exceed the slide front-to-back
dimension.
If this slide dimension is exceeded, the minimum safety distance must be
increased, otherwise part of an operator's body may enter the danger zone,
resulting in personal injury or death.
• Before starting work, you must confirm that the presence sensing device is prop-
erly calibrated and functioning properly by performing the pre-work check proce-
dure given in the presence sensing device instruction manual. Failure to perform
this pre-work check procedure may result in personal injury or death.
If any problems are found, immediately prohibit press machine usage, discon-
nect power, lockout, tagout and make the appropriate repairs.
•
20
Section A SAFETY 3. SAFEGUARDING
Closing the guard is intended to restrict and prevent operators and other persons from putting
their hands into the point of operation.
WARNING
• Do not start press operation with guard limit switches disabled or non-function-
ing.
Disabling the guard limit switches may cause guarding functions to be inopera-
ble, and may thus result in personal injury or death.
21
Section A SAFETY 4. ACCORDANCE WITH OSHA REGULATIONS
The following devices have been installed in accordance with OSHA standards.
22
Section A SAFETY 4. ACCORDANCE WITH OSHA REGULATIONS
(Continued)
WARNING
• Two-hand RUN buttons are not safety devices when on a servo drive press
machine.
The press machine can be operated by simultaneously pushing the two-hand
RUN buttons with both hands. However, on a servo drive press machine the two-
hand RUN buttons do not function as safety devices. Accordingly, some other
type of safety device is required. If the press machine is used without additional
safety equipment having been installed and properly calibrated, maintained and
used, it may result in personal injury or death.
• Before using the die block, always pull the plug, which is connected to the die
block with a chain, out of the connector. When the chain is damaged, repair it
immediately. Be sure to use a chain of the length specified by AIDA (the original
length).
Improper maintenance, repair or length, or misuse of the chain can cause per-
sonal injury or death.

Section A SAFETY 5. USING THE PRESS MACHINE SAFELY
(Continued)
WARNING
• If quick-drying, high-volatility material coating fluids are used in the material oil
coating device, the customer is responsible for assuring that measures are
implemented to prevent the spray, etc., from such coating fluids from coming into
contact with the press and with peripheral devices.
Quick-drying, high-volatility coating fluids can degrade press lubrication oil per-
formance, as well as cause paint coatings, seals, hoses and the plastic coatings
on wiring to harden, expand, and/or peel.
There is a fire hazard risk from electrical short circuits resulting from wire or ter-
minal block deterioration due to contact with such coating fluids.
Take appropriate measures in accordance with the information provided on the
coating fluid Material Safety Data Sheet.
CAUTION
• When water-soluble material coating fluids are used in the material oil coating
device, the customer is responsible for assuring that measures are implemented
to prevent such coating fluids from contaminating the lubricants of the press and
of peripheral devices.
If water-soluble material coating fluids contaminate the machine lubricants, the
lubricants may quickly deteriorate and lose their lubricating properties, resulting
in machine failure.
Should it be impossible to completely prevent material coating fluids from con-
taminating the machine lubricants, an oil-water separator or some other appropri-
ate device should be used. In addition, the standard interval between lubrication
oil changes should be shortened.
25
Section A SAFETY 5. USING THE PRESS MACHINE SAFELY

injury or death.
For the inspection items, see Section E MAINTENANCE, 1. PERIODIC
INSPECTION (pg. 323).
• Do not touch the servo motor with your hand while operation and immediately
after operation.
The servo motor reaches a high temperature during operation and could burn
your hand.
• Before opening a control panel door, etc., be sure to shut off the power supply
from your power source.
Otherwise, a fatal accident may be caused by electric shock when the insides of
a control panel are touched.
• Even after the power supply is turned off, the capacitor and other parts remain
charged with high-voltage electricity for a short period of time, so be sure to wait
for a period of time before performing maintenance.
Touching high-voltage internal areas can result in death from electric shock.
• Replace parts and components related to safety before they reach their standard
service life even if they are working properly. (See Section E MAINTENANCE,
4.2 SERVICE LIFE OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS (pg. 343).) Replace failed
parts--do not repair them.
Personal injury or death may be caused by a malfunction.

CAUTION
• The employer must observe the following before using and during use of the press
machine.
(2) Use the press machine within the limits of the maximum allowable load indicated on
the stroke-tonnage curve.
If used beyond its allowable load, the slide drive-related parts and other compo-
nents may break.
(3) Use the press machine within its specified energy capacity (Continuous working
energy).
If used beyond its specified energy capacity, the servo motor and other components
may break.
Be familiar with the three elements of the press machine capacity (tonnage capacity, torque
capacity, and energy capacity), so that you can perform press machine operations within the
limits of the machine capacity.
The tonnage capacity of the press machine is the maximum allowable pressure force that can
be safely sustained by the press machine during presswork with the slide at a position lower
than the rated tonnage point.
Use the machine with an adequate margin for the tonnage capacity by taking the following factors
into considerations.
(1) Variation in material sheet thickness
(2) Variation in material tensile strength (hardness)
(3) Die cutting surface wear
(4) Variation in the die lubrication condition
(5) Whether there is a stripper in the die, and the type of stripper
If the presswork involves blanking, particularly where a shock load due to breakthrough is gener-
ated, make sure that the workload is kept within the value given in the “Limitation of the tonnage
capacity for blanking” subsection below.
The tonnage capacity has been calculated on the assumption that the load is uniformly distrib-
uted in an area consisting of 60% of the bolster area, and located in the center of the bolster.
Avoid concentration of a heavy load in a small area, or off-center loading (the center of the
resultant load is not aligned with that of the press machine). If excessive concentration of a
load, or off-center loading is anticipated, contact our sales office shown on the last page of this
instruction manual.
Refer to "TECHNICAL DOCUMENT" in Section B SPECIFICATIONS, 1. SPECIFICATIONS (pg.
57) for the pressure capacity specifications.
76
Section B SPECIFICATIONS 4. ELEMENTS OF PRESSWORK
The torque capacity indicates the distance (in mm) above bottom dead center at which the
tonnage capacity can be generated.
The stroke-tonnage curve shows the relationship between the slide position above bottom
dead center of the strokes and the generated pressure (torque capacity).
The example below indicates that a press machine having a capacity of I is capable of blank-
ing work (1), but bending work (2) would exceed the capacity. Therefore, a press machine of
the torque capacity shown by the curve I cannot perform the bending work (2).
Note that the hydraulic overload protector works against the overload described in
4.1 TONNAGE CAPACITY (NOMINAL CAPACITY) (pg. 76) and does not work against the
overload of torque capacity. When using a tonnage monitor as a torque capacity overload
detector, consult our sales office (see the list at the end of this instruction manual).
A load meter of standard specifications cannot detect torque capacity overload. Furthermore,
even in the case of using a load meter with monitoring function, the load meter has no function
as a safety device against overload. Therefore, never operate the press machine for the work
exceeding the torque capacity.

CAUTION
• Be sure to take the bearing capacity of the soil into account prior to foundation work.
Otherwise, the press machine may partially sink.
• Be sure to reinforce the concrete of the base section on which the press machine is to be
installed with reinforcing bars.
Otherwise, the foundation concrete may be broken.
(1) Have a specialist conduct foundation work in advance according to the foundation
drawings (Section E MAINTENANCE, 7. DRAWINGS (pg. 362))provided by AIDA.
(2) When the ground is soft, use reinforcing bars. Also, strengthen concrete accordingly
by increasing the thickness, etc.
(3) For the weight of the press machine, see the foundation drawings submitted by AIDA.
81
Section C INSTALLATION 2. TRANSPORTATION AND INSTALLATION
Before installation, unpack the press machine and wash the machined surfaces with mineral
cleaning oil to remove the rust inhibitor.
NOTE If you need further information about installation, contact our sales office (see the
end of this instruction manual).
82
Section C INSTALLATION 3. CONNECTING THE AIR SUPPLY
CAUTION
• Supply dry and clean compressed air that contains no dust or sludge.
If air containing dust or sludge is used, the solenoid valve may malfunction or
rust may accumulate in the cylinder, leading to an accident.
• Examine the air consumption of the Mechanical device and other equipment, and
then determine the capacity of your compressed air source by adding the above-
mentioned air consumption to the air consumption stated in this instruction man-
ual.
If the supply of compressed air is inadequate, problems with the press machine
may occur.
(1) Regarding the piping from your air source, see the “FOUNDATION” (Section E MAIN-
TENANCE, 7. DRAWINGS (pg. 362)) which we submitted earlier.
(2) Set the air exhaust valve to EXH (exhaust).
(3) Close the stop valve on the air supply inlet. Connect the air supply inlet to your air line.
See “FOUNDATION” or “LINE FOUNDATION” in Section B SPECIFICATIONS,

"SLIDE POS.(mm)" ......................The slide position (the height of the slide above bot-
tom dead center) where the forming process starts
for each process.
"SL(SLIDE) VELOCITY(%)" .........The velocity from the start position of the current pro-
cess up to the start position of the next process.
(A percentage of the PRODUCTION screen no-load
spm setting.)
"SL(SLIDE) VELOCITY (mm/s)" ..This represents the numeric value calculated by con-
verting the above-mentioned spm percentage to slide
travel velocity.
* This is not a setting. This value is automatically cal-
culated.
This value may be displayed in red according to the
value of percentage. This indicates that the slide
velocity that the die cushion cannot follow has been
set.
"PAUSE TIME" .............................The stop time at the process start position.
(The data setting range is from 0 to 20.0 seconds.)
"SILENT DECEL ( Deceleration)" .The amount of silent deceleration at the process start
position.
This setting cannot be specified for a final process.
The velocity can be slowed down at a specified point
in the forming zone. When the silent deceleration set-
ting is "100" (100%), the velocity is momentarily
reduced to zero (0), and then the slide is accelerated
again to the set forming velocity and the forming pro-
cess is performed.
For example, in a process where the forming speed
is set at "50" and the amount of "SILENT. DECEL (
Deceleration)" is set at "90", the speed is instanta-
neously slowed to 5% of the no load spm value
[50%×(100%-90%)=5%].
"AUX.FUNCTION" ........................Specifies an auxiliary output signal
[0]: An auxiliary output signal is not outputted.
[1] - [15]: An auxiliary function code with a specified
number is outputted.

Section D OPERATION 7. ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
• Timing switch settings must be performed by qualified personnel in cooperation
with a qualified electrician.
Settings made by unqualified personnel may lead to an accident causing per-
sonal injury or death.
• Except for ejector and automation device (option) data, do not change the data
settings made by AIDA.
If changed, personal injury or death can be caused due to unexpected actuation
and motion.
• AIDA will not be held liable for any accidents resulting in personal injury or death
nor for any damages to the press machine that are caused by entering data that
is different from the preset data entered by AIDA at the time the press machine
was shipped from the factory, or by the usage of data entered by the user on a
user-furnished device without consulting AIDA.
• Be sure to set the OPERATION SELECT switch to OFF before operating the tim-
ing switch.
Otherwise, the slide or other related devices may inadvertently start, leading to
an accident causing personal injury or death.
A timing switch is used to synchronize ejectors, automation devices (option), and other equip-
ment with the press machine. For instance, if you require an ejector to actuate at a press
machine crank angle of 10° and stop at 20°, you can set this operational sequence using a
timing switch.
In this case, you would set the ON angle to 10° and the OFF angle to 20°.
For cam settings, see 7.3.4 Cam Allocation List (pg. 257).
To change the timing switch settings, set the DATA EDIT "OFF" • "ON" Switch to "ON".
To make data settings using the operator interface terminal, see Section D OPERATION,
3.5.3 Timing Switch Settings Screen (pg. 138).
255
Section D OPERATION 7. ADJUSTMENT
(Continued)
The gain angle function automatically adjusts the signaling timing for equipment actuation (for
example, the timing of peripheral device ON and OFF signals) in relation to changes in the
press machine speed.
If the gain angle function is not used (i.e., no gain angle is set), devices synchronized with the
press machine operation will lag behind press machine motions as the press machine speed
increases.
When comparing operation at two different press machine speeds, for example at 30 spm and
at 100 spm, the responsiveness of press machine peripheral devices would lag more at 100
spm than at 30 spm. In this scenario, although the actuator is actuating at 50° when the press
machine is running at 30 spm, at 100 spm it would be actuating at 70°, etc.
To compensate for such time delays, the gain angle function can be effectively used to offer
better responsiveness to increases in press machine speed.
<< Determining the Gain Angle Settings >>
The gain angle settings for ON GAIN and OFF GAIN should be set by specifying the maxi-
mum gain angle at the maximum press machine speed (spm).
Calculate the maximum gain angle (the setting value) at the maximum press machine speed
(spm) by using the formula below, which is based on your actual press machine speed
(spm) and the desired gain angle.
If the maximum press machine speed (spm) equals the actual press machine speed (spm),
or the motor used is a fixed-speed type, the desired gain angle value becomes the setting
value.
The maximum speed (spm) of your press machine is shown on the specification plate.
Desired gain angle
Gain setting value "A" = × Max. spm
Actual speed
Example) Actual press machine speed = 65 spm, Desired gain angle = 10°, Max press
machine speed = 75 spm.
10
×75 = 11.5 → 11
65
Therefore, the setting would be "11".
When you want to individually set the ON GAIN and OFF GAIN, determine each setting
value separately.
NOTE • AIDA recommends that the ON GAIN and OFF GAIN be set to the same value.
• If the ON GAIN and OFF GAIN are set to different values, it is very important that
the gain OFF ANGLE does not precede the gain ON ANGLE. Otherwise, the
cam outputs may be reversed.

NOTE
•If you operate the press in STEP FEED or ORIGIN POINT Return mode after stopping the
slide in the middle of a press operation, the cam signal will continue to maintain the state it
was in at the time the press stopped. However, once you complete the STEP FEED or
ORIGIN POINT Return operation, the cam signal will change to reflect the current crank
position. This is because the press considers Inch mode operations as being equivalent to
a stopped condition.
•When the ON and OFF settings are not angle settings, the ON and OFF position data is
used and the ON and OFF angle data is ignored. Likewise, when the ON and OFF set-
tings are angle settings, the ON and OFF angle data is used and any other data is ignored.
•A delay time can be set for cams 1 through 4. When a delay time value other than Åg0Åh
is inputted, an ON signal will turn OFF after the delay time has elapsed. However, please
note that you must set an appropriate OFF setting even when a delay time setting has
been made. If no OFF setting is inputted, the OFF operation will not be performed after the
signal turns ON. Also note that if you input a delay time setting value that is greater than
the time required to complete one cycle, the ON signal will never turn OFF.

Section D OPERATION 7. ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
• Motion program settings must be performed by qualified personnel in coopera-
tion with a qualified electrician.
If it is done by an unqualified person, it could result in personal injury or death.
• Do not make changes to any control circuits except for auxiliary output signals
and auxiliary motion completion input signals. If changes are made, the normal
functionality of the press machine will be impaired and could result in personal
injury or death.
When setting up the control circuit, follow the instructions given in Section A SAFETY, (Contin-
ued) (pg. 30).
When changing the motion program settings, set the DATA EDIT "OFF" • "ON" Switch on the
operation panel to "ON" .
For the procedure for making data settings using the operator Interface terminal, see item of
Section D OPERATION, 3.5.1 Motion Selection /Setting Screen (pg. 127).
The following motions can be done by inputting Auxiliary Function settings in the motion pro-
gram and installing the necessary wiring.
(1) The slide stops at a specific position, and then performs some auxiliary function (such
as mechanical motions not involving slide motion, such as pressurizing or heating).
Then, after confirming that the auxiliary motion has been completed, it continues on to
the next process. If the completion of an auxiliary motion is not a requirement, auxiliary
motions can be specified by using timing switch signals.
(2) Just like a timing switch, the motion program begins performing auxiliary motions from
a specific slide position without stopping the press machine, and, in cases where the
auxiliary motions are not completed by the time the slide target position is reached, it
halts the slide at a target position until the auxiliary motions are completed. If the auxil-
iary motions are completed before the slide target position is reached, the press
machine does not stop.
(3) When there is a possibility that peripheral devices such as conveyance actuators and
robot hands might collide with the slide or the dies, it is possible to set up a control cir-
cuit that outputs an auxiliary motion signal once the peripheral device has been
retracted to a position where it will not collide with the press machine. Because of this
auxiliary function, when there is the possibility of a collision with a peripheral device, it
is possible to pause press machine operation at a position where a collision is not pos-
sible. Once the peripheral device has been retracted, the press machine automatically
continues operation. If the press machine and peripheral devices are synchronized so
that they cannot collide, it is possible to control the press machine so that it does not
have to stop.

CAUTION
• Perform die changes under the direct supervision of authorized personnel.
• When lowering the slide to bottom dead center after putting dies in position, oper-
ate the slide while visually confirming that the knockout pin of the dies, etc., that
protrude above the top face of the die do not come in contact with the bottom of
the slide.
• Before removing dies, use the slide adjust device to separate the slide from the
upper die.
Otherwise, the upper die could possibly remain attached to the bottom of the
slide, and when the slide is raised it could also be lifted and then subsequently
fall.
• When stopping the air supply from the source for three hours or longer while die
clampers are in use, lower the slide to bottom dead center to prevent misalign-
ment between the upper and lower dies.
Otherwise, the upper die may be misaligned with the lower die due to a decrease
in die clamper hydraulic pressure.
When you manually change the die, it is necessary to carry out the die change while visually
checking the operation of each device.

"SLIDE POS.(mm)" ........... This is used to set the slide position (height from the bottom
dead center position of the slide) from which the press
process is started.
"SL(SLIDE)
VELOCITY(%)" ................. This is used to set a speed to be employed from the starting
position of the current process to that of the subsequent pro-
cess. (Ratio with respect to no-load spm which is set on the
"PRODUCTION" screen) In the case the speed is set at 0
(zero) %, the slide control used in the preceding process
continues. In this case, the slide position (mm) has to be set
as a pass point between the preceding process and the
subsequent one. This pass point should be used in the case
the die cushion load is changed without changing the slide
control.
"SL(SLIDE)
VELOCITY (mm/s)" .......... This is the numeric value which is obtained by converting the
aforementioned SPM ratio into the slide travel speed.
* This item is not a setting item. It is automatically
calculated. The numeric value may be displayed in red
depending on the value of ratio. The value displayed in red
means that the slide speed which cannot be followed by the
die cushion is set.
"PAUSE TIME" .................. This is used to set the time during which the machine is at
rest at the process starting position.
(The setting range is from 0 to 20.0 sec.)
(Continued on the next page)
281
Section D OPERATION 10. Making Motion Program Settings
(Continued)
"SILENT DECEL
( Deceleration)" ................. This is used to set the deceleration amount by which the
slide operates silently at the starting position of process.
* The speed at which the slide reaches the specified position
in the forming zone can be reduced.
In the case the silent deceleration amount is set at "100" %,
the speed is once reduced to 0 (zero) in the process, and
then it is re-increased to the forming speed to carry out
forming. For example, for a process for which the "speed" is
set at "50" and the "silent deceleration amount" is set at
"90", the slide instantaneously decelerates to 5% of the no-
load spm [50 % x (100 %?90 %) = 5 %]. Note that the silent
deceleration cannot be specified for the last process.
"AUX.FUNCTION" ............ This is used to specify the auxiliary function code output
signal.
"0": Auxiliary function code output signal is not output.
"1" - "15": Auxiliary function code of the set number is
output.
Auxiliary function codes "1" to "9" are intended for the die
cushion. In the case the auxiliary function code "1" is
selected when the press is operated in conjunction with the
DC, the slide temporarily stops at the bottom dead center
until the die cushion depressurization is completed and
starts running after the acknowledgement of the
depressurization completion signal.
The auxiliary function code "2" is used for controlling
immediate stop of the intermediate stop function.
The auxiliary function codes "3" to "9" are manufacturer-
reserved codes.
The auxiliary function codes "10" to "15" are used for the
peripheral devices. (Option)
"VELOCITY SHIFT" .......... This is used to specify the speed changing method at the
process changeover point.
"0" Pre-Speed-Change: Acceleration/deceleration is
completed before the starting position of the current process
is reached.
"1" Post-Speed-Change: The speed employed in the
preceding process is used until the starting position of the
current process is reached. Then, the speed is increased/
decreased to a target speed.
"2" Taper: After the speed has been increased/decreased to
the target speed at the starting position of the current
process, the speed is linearly increased/decreased in such a
way that the target speed of the subsequent process is
reached at the starting position of that process.
"3" Pre-Speed-Change + Constant Speed: The acceleration/
deceleration is completed before the starting position of the
current process is reached. Then, keeping that slide speed,
the constant-speed slide operation is carried out.
"4" Post-Speed-Change + Constant Speed: The speed
employed in the preceding process is used until the starting
position of the current process is reached. Then, the speed
is increased/decreased to a target speed. Keeping the slide
speed at the target speed, the constant-speed slide
operation is carried out.

"CUSHION POS.(mm)" ..... Usedto set the position of the die cushion (distance from the
forming stroke end) from which the die cushion process is
started.
"CUSHION LOAD(kN)" ..... Used to set the die cushion load for the current process.
The die cushion load can only be set for the die cushion
process.
The maximum number of processes for which the die
cushion load can be set is six.
For any process other than the die cushion process, set this
value at "0" kN.
"KNOCKOUT(mm/s)" ........ Used to set the knockout operating speed after forming.
The knockout operating speed can only be set for the
knockout process.
For any process other than the knockout process, set this
value at "0" mm/s.
"PRESSURE SHIFT" ........ Used to select the die cushion operation mode.
"0": Die cushion load setting is diabled.
"1": Post-Pressure-Change
"2": Taper Pressure-Change
"3": Bottom dead center depressurization and knockout pro-
cess
"4": Intermediate stop function
* Refer to the Instruction Manual for die cushion for details of
the pressure change mode.
"CUSHION STOP(s)" ........ Used to set a duration in which the die cushion is at rest at
the bottom dead center and that during the knockout
process after forming.
(The setting range is from 0 to 20.0 sec.)

Section D OPERATION 10. Making Motion Program Settings
CAUTION
• The waveform and numeric values representing the slide position and velocity that are
displayed on the motion waveform display area or the program monitor screen are calcu-
lated values or reference values derived from the setting values. They do not ensure the
actual press motion.
After setting up a motion program, press the "DECISION" key on the "DATA EDIT" menu (" ② "
in the figure shown below). Pressing the "DECISION" key will initiate the verification process
in the controller that checks whether the press can actually move in accordance with the spec-
ified motion program.
* The time required for the verification process results to be displayed will differ depending on
the content of the motion program and the number of processes.
⑫ "PROGRAM MONI-
TOR" key
If there are any program settings (errors) found during the verification process that the press
cannot actually do, the description of the error and the number of the process containing the
error is displayed in the edit data error display area (" ⑩ " in the figure above). If the program
settings related to press operation are error-free, the message "NG process: 0" will be dis-
played in the error process number area and nothing will be displayed on the edit data error
display area. In addition, the motion waveform display (" ⑪ " in the figure above) will be
updated to display the waveform that shows the slide position and other settings of the speci-
fied motion program, thereby allowing you to confirm that the displayed waveform matches
the desired press operation settings.

When the "PROGRAM MONITOR" key in SUB MENU ⑫ shown in the figure on the previous
page is pressed, the screen changes to the program monitor screen (see below) where you
can perform a detailed check of the motion program.
The setting procedure is completed using the above procedure. When you run the press
according to the numeric values set in the example given above, the press runs using stan-
dard crank motion where a constant velocity is maintained for each cycle. If the slide velocity
in process No. 1 is set at "50" (%), the press will change velocity from a position 100 mm
above bottom dead center and run at 50% of the no-load spm until the slide reaches bottom
dead center.

In the case of press UNIT operation, minimum two processes will be required for the pro-
cess to be set by the motion program. (See figure 10.3-1.)
In the case of LINE operation with the die cushion, because the knockout process of the
die cushion will be required, minimum three processes will be required for the process to be
set by the motion program. (See figure 10.3-2)

This is an example of a program that decreases the slide velocity in order to reduce the vibra-
tion and noise that occurs at the time the material comes in contact with the die and when the
material separates from the die.
(Depending on factors such as the die, the shape of material, and the forming method, this
program may not always be an effective means of reducing vibration and noise.)
If the settings bel
