Safety
Gener al SafeTy
The users must have Read and UndeRstood, but most of all must Respect the
directives described in this manual.
All people coming into contact with the machine on which the numerical
control is installed, whatever their function or whatever state the machine is in
(assembly, disassembly, start-up, production, maintenance, repairs) must have
read and understood the requirements concerning the security and the entirety
of the directives of operation described in the manuals delivered with the
machine.
The operator must be properly trained to work with the machine
on which the numerical control is installed. Improper use of the
numerical control can cause heavy damage on equipment and/or
injuries to people.
Modification of machine parameters can cause important material damage or
lead to irregular product quality.
Do not expose the numerical control to excessive humidity so as to avoid any
risk of electrocution and any deterioration of the equipment.
Make sure the numerical control is disconnected from the mains power before
carrying out any cleaning. Do not use liquids based on alcohol or ammoniac.
In case of malfunction of the numerical control, call a technician.
Do not expose the numerical control to direct sun rays or any other heat source.
Do not place the numerical control in the neighborhood of magnetic equipment
such as transformers, motors or devices which generate interference (welding
machines, etc.).

Depending on software evolutions and the press brake controlled by the CybTouch
(configuration/capabilities), the present manual may not fully correspond to the CybTouch
that you currently have. However, differences are only minor.
Touchscreens are pressure sensitive. Do not press down hard on the
screen.
Pressing hard on the screen will damage the display. Such damage is
not covered by manufacturer warranty!
Do not use sharp and/or pointed objects (sheet metal, screwdriver,
metal pen ball, etc.) to touch the screen.
Only use your fingers (with or without gloves on) or a plastic pen. Make sure that your
gloves do not have metal particles encrusted in the finger tips as they may also damage
the screen.
Take a few minutes to practice pressing gently on the screen, you will find that the screen
is very reactive and it is pleasant to use.

Material thickness
The material thickness must be entered here. This value is used to calculate the bending
depth according to the tooling chosen. This is also of course a part parameter.
Material sigma
The material sigma can be entered here. This value is to be used as an information for the
operator. This is also of course a part parameter.
Force
The force with which the part will be bent must be entered here. The operator’s
experience, as well as a trial-and-error procedure, will help define the most appropriate
force for the bend.
Opening (TDC)
When activated, this parameter allows defining the duration during which the beam
moves back up from BDC. This value must be set to allow the operator enough room to
extract its bent part from between the tools.

Angle Correction
Back gauge Correction
After physically measuring the angle, if corrections are to be made, they must be done as
follows, and not directly in the program step.
Setting inStructionS:
1. Touch the angle correction icon,
and enter the physically measured
value of the angle. The numerical
control will automatically calculate the
Y axis correction.
Reset corrections button
Pressing this button will reset all
angle corrections.
2. Corrections can be applied in the very same manner to the back gauge X axis
position, simply by touching the small number to the right of the flange length. The
correction required (in positive or negative) must be entered manually.
bendinG wiThouT ToolS ManaGeMenT
For versions that do not have tool management, it is impossible for the operator to select
with or without tool management (see Tooling management, page 14). The selection is
simply not available.
Working without tools management means that you can program the back gauge value
for X axis and the bend depth value for Y axis only in mm (or inch).
All corrections are thus also manually made in mm/inches.
Y-axis position in mm
(or inch)
X-axis position in mm

error and warninG MeSSaGeS
Following is a list of warning and error
messages which may be displayed on the
interactive message line of the CybTouch.
There are two types of messages:
• Warning Messages, which are displayed on a green background. They are information or instructions that will disappear automatically.
• Error Messages (machine or NC
errors), which are displayed on a red
background. They inform the user of an
error occurring on the machine or NC,
and sometimes require intervention by
the end user or a technician.
When reporting error messages, please ALWAYS indicate the error number at
the end of the line. This number also refers to the first column in the section
