SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
The operator must be trained for working 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.
The rear panel may only be removed by a qualified
technician (danger of electrocution). 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
neighbourhood of magnetic equipment such as transformers, motors or devices which generate interference (welding machines, etc.)
Replace fan filters at regular intervals so as to avoid
overheating.

CREATING A PRODUCT
This paragraph explains how to programme a product as well as the method for correcting and recording it.
USING THE SEQUENCE PAGE
This page displays all the bending informations for the current sequence. That is the requested position of the Y and X (R, etc.) axes, the pressure, the gauge retraction, the crowning, the dwell time, etc.
Important This page displays the result of the calculations made when programming a
product in the L-alpha page with definition of the bending order. The operator can modify these values if necessary (especially the retraction, the dwell time, the top dead center). However he must avoid to directly modify the Y and X values calculated by the DNC.
Hint An operator can directly program a product in this page, without "passing"
through the L-alpha page and definition of the bending order. This simplifies the manipulations a great deal, since all the informations required for the bending are on this page.
To reach the sequence page, press the

retraction is made, in order to carry out the bend.

If nothing is programmed in this field, the axes start automatically from the BDC, from the PP or from the TDC, depending on the choice made in the machine parameters.

If 1 is programmed, the start will be made as a function of the configuration made by the
constructor.
- In most of the configurations, it will be sufficient to give a down command. At this command, the axes take position, then a second down command has to be given, in order to move the beam.
- In other configurations, the provided start button must be pressed.

PROGRAMMING WITH THE SEQUENCE PAGE
In this guide, it is considered that the DNC is configured so as to be operational (i.e. machine and tool parameters programmed).
The operator has 2 methods available for programming.
The fastest
Direct programming (or programming in the sequence page)
Direct programming is the faster method for an experienced operator, because all the programming of the product is done on the same page. This makes it possible to programme the positions of the axes directly, and it calculates the depth of bending according to the angle entered.
With calculation of the flat pattern
The L-Alpha method.
The L-alpha method makes it possible to enter a profile to bend with the external dimensions and angle of each face. The DNC will calculate the developed length: After having programmed the sequence of bends, the DNC will calculate the position of the gauges. Explanation of this method in page 38.

CORRECTIONS
It can happen that the angle bent is slightly greater or less than the angle programmed.
The operator has then the possibility to introduce the real value of the angle bent. The DNC will correct the Y1 and Y2 axis values accordingly.
The corrections can be entered into two different pages:

The following working method is recommended:
Programme or call the product. Switch to semi-automatic mode. Execute first bend. Measure the result. Switch to programming mode.
Enter the measured angle into the COR field (see above). The DNC
automatically calculates the corrections to be made to Y1 and Y2.
If necessary, make the corrections to the gauge axes. Bend a second product on the first bend to check the corrections. Move to the following sequence and then proceed in the same way for
all subsequent sequences.
When all the bends are correct, switch to automatic mode and proceed
normally. The correction entered above is applied only to the current sequence. Every other sequence must be corrected individually.
Product-by-product correction is possible in the CORRECTION page (see explanation on page 71).
