Inputs/outputs for direct operation of valves
for blade movements, blade gap, cutting
angle, cutting length and system pressure
without passing through relays.
Internal timers for smooth valve
commutation.
Reduced electrical wiring, electrical cabinet
size and equipment for lower start-up costs
on each shear.
Flexible software for configuration of axes,
inputs-outputs and auxiliary functions
according to specific needs.
Screen content can be simplified to its
minimum by removing all unnecessary
functions, buttons or information.
Quick set-up thanks to wizards for adjusting
axes, gains, speeds, rake angle, blade gap
and indexes.
New indexing functions reduce the quantity
of switches and wiring, while providing
more reliable indexing.
CybTouch 6 accepts encoders with or
without complementary signals.
RFlink, a wireless radio frequency
transmission integrated in the CybTouch,
allows easy parameters backups or
firmware upgrades. This provides modern,
fast and simple communication, with no
need to open the housing, no need of
connecting cable *.
Very intuitive, no explanations required.
Operator immediately feels confident and
comfortable using this control.
Immediate easy use of the shear for any new
user thanks to EasyCut page.
Energy saving thanks to integrated Eco mode
function that automatically stops the main
pump after x minutes of inactivity.
Full touch screen human machine interface
offers the best of modern technology.
Colors are vivid but not aggressive, providing
excellent readability thanks to the large
characters and big buttons.
Recurrent programs for producing complex
parts can be created and memorized for easy
reuse.
Pop-up messages for security or external
malfunctions.
RFlink wireless radio frequency data
communication allows backup and restoring
operations without any cable connection to the
numerical control *.
Many languages available directly in the
CybTouch 6.
Internal backup located in a special safe
memory allows the user to restore at any time
the original parameters; machine is running
again in an extremely short time in the event
of a memory loss or involuntary parameter
modification.

Axis and Shear Features
The below elements are available and can be configured on CybTouch by the OEM. However, some
functions of course depend on the machine construction.
Available features depend on the number of available axes and inputs/outputs.
