ModEva™ 15T

ModEva is a range of numerical control units intended specifically for sheet metal working. Depending on the software installed, ModEva can be used on synchronized or non-synchronized press-brakes of the upstroking or down-stroking type.

ModEva numerical control units can control up to 18 axes of which 2 are synchronized hydraulic axes especially intended for press-brakes.

The numerical control is composed of 2 main elements:

• The programming console.

• The CNC (Computerized Numerical Control).

The programming console is located within the operator's reach, generally fixed to a swiveling arm; the CNC is placed inside the electric cabinet.

The CNC is available in 2 rack formats.

• Rack version C (Compact): This is a small, very compact rack, convenient for many situations.

• Rack version M (Medium): This is a bigger rack permitting a varied combination of configurations.

The software enables manufacturers to configure the axes, the inputs/outputs and the auxiliary functions according to their needs.

ModEva is a modular range with a choice of:

• 1 programming console 15” touchscreen.

• 2 programs (2D or 3D) an d 1 Windows XP emb. operational system.

• 2 different rack sizes depending on the number of axes and the desired technology (analog or CAN).

Definitions:

Hydraulic axes: An analog axis especially intended for controlling the beams (Y1-Y2). These two axes are on the

NPU.

Analogical axes: Axes for which position is given by an incremental sensor and instructions are provided by the CNC

via a ±10V DC analog voltage. One also corresponds to an analog interface axis. These axes are controlled by boards called NMX / NSX. Each of these boards controls 2 axes.

CAN axes: Axes for which positioning information is handled through a CAN bus.

These axes require an NCX board on the CNC side and a CAN interface on the servo-amplifier side. An NCX board can control up to 8 axes. The number of CAN axes is controlled as an option. The ModEva CNC can be equipped with a maximum of 2 NCX axis boards.

NMX: A master board for 2 analog ax es. A master board controls up to 3 NSX slave boards. NSX: A slave board for 2 analog axes. A slave board in all case s requires an NMX board. NCX: CAN board for a maximum of 8 CAN ax es. This board can handle various protocols according to the

type of servo-amplifier used. It is possible to combine CAN and analog axes.
