10. BENDING OPERATION
WARNING
O
Never put your hand or hands between the
punches and dies.
O
Apply to the installed tools a pressure that
is not higher than the allowable tonnage
marked on them. Unless a proper
pressure is applied to them, the tools may
break and scatter in a dangerous manner.
Tool selection is very important in bending. Select your tools by
referring to the AMADA tool catalog. Usually, the allowable tonnage is
marked on the tools. If the tools do not have the allowable tonnage
marked on them, contact AMADA.
When the ambient temperature drops to 10°C {50°F} or below, the
machine varies in the multiple closing limit of the ram. To obtain stable
bending accuracy, warm up the machine by applying a pressure about
one-third of its press capacity for about 10 min. (Take care not to apply
a pressure larger than the allowable tonnage of the installed tools.)
10-1. Setting rising speed change position
Set the position where to change the rising speed of the ram from the
approach speed to the bending speed (low speed) as described below.
1 Pull forward the rising
speed change
position setting lever.
The setting of the
rising speed change
position is cleared.
2 Loosen the
handwheel lock knob
to unlock the multiple
closing limit setting
handwheel.
3 Turn the multiple
closing limit setting
handwheel fully
counterclockwise.
The multiple closing
limit of the ram
becomes the lowest.
