4. Product Features

Essential features:

 Analog or digital outputs for 1 - 3 speed operation
 16 free programmable digital in-/outputs
 Program memory (1000 sets)
 Angle control / gap control / backgauge
 Limitation of the cutting length
 Material List for angle and gap control

The single axis controller of P40 series is applicable
to easy positioning tasks. An important feature is the
easy structured function menu. It allows a quick and
comfortable setting of the target value, if necessary
a specific quantity of desired pieces, an angle or the
gap. Target and actual value of the axes plus
quantity will be displayed on the front panel. The
keyboard is simple and user-friendly. With the inputs
the cutting angle or gap can be displayed and
controlled. These encoder inputs work in an analog
mode. A back stop can be programmed. The P40
series has an internal program memory with up to
1000 lines. For the positioning two different kinds of
output signals are available: Switch mode
positioning and PID-analog output. The P40 series
can alternatively be supplied with 24VDC or 24VAC.
An optional serial interface allows data transmission
for communication with a superior system.

Basic modes of operation:

The P40 consists of three general operation modes:

1. Manual: Inching operation moves the axes through operating the keypad or external switches.

2. Single: A whole set can be worked off.

3. Program: In this operation mode a programmed set can be worked off.
