Information
To aid in setting up the device, the device can be switched to continuous
measurement mode. In this mode, the laser is active for measurement, and
using a pre-bent part, you can check whether the measurement fields are
on the legs of the sheet or whether the device still needs to be adjusted on
the upper tool.
Carrying out the measurement
WARNING!
Personal injury risk due to the bending process!
During the bending process, the device must not be operated! Prior to oper-
ation, the press brake must be switched to a safe state.
Information
The measurement in Machine operating mode is triggered by the motion of
the device. The measurement functions correctly only if the device moves
down with the upper tool and back (up) at sufficient speed during the mea-
surement.
For measurement in Machine operating mode, proceed as follows:
1) Attach the device to the upper tool.
2) Switch the device on by pressing the operating button.
3) Navigate to the
Machine
menu item by pressing and holding the operat-
ing button.
4) Start machine mode by pressing the operating button once.
5) Wait until the idle state has been reached (display shows" ").
6) Start the bending operation. The measurement operation starts automat-
ically.
Automatic measurement is now active, and the measurement result can be
read off the display of the device after every bending operation.
If there are too few individual measurement values, the displayed measure-
ment value will flash and could be incorrect. For additional information, refer
to the "Machine" chapter.
Information
If the pressing speed is low or the press beam stroke is short, the motion
sensor of the device does not trigger. In this case, the parameters for trig-
gering the measurement must be adjusted.
