4.4.10 Depth adjustment*
This menu is accessed by pressing the ‘DEPTH ADJUSTMENT’ button in the main menu (see
Figure 4.29)
Here the desired depth of the forming chamber can be established. The set value has a
tolerance of ±2 mm. A new value entered for the desired depth has to be saved, then the value
is stored into the recent program.
The value of the
set points
can be changed by pressing the numbers. A numeric keypad
(Figure 4.6) will appear, fill in the desired settings, press enter, now the numeric keypad will
disappear and the value for the SP has changed.
If needed, the depth can be changed manually by the arrow keys. The set value in the display
is not connected to the manual mode and these changes will not be stored into the recent
program.
With “reset Depth” the bottom plates comes to their upper position for initialization, and then
return to the desired depth established as a set value. The minimum depth is dependent on the
design of the bottom plates. The difference between minimum and maximum depth is limited to
65 mm.
The walls or corners of the plates are not allowed out of the forming chambers due to the
possibilityof damage to the teflonised heating plate in the die top part, therefore the minimum
depth is limited in the factory program by default.
For each individual program another depth can be stored, so when another program selected
in the program menu, the depth goes automatically to the desired depth stored in that program.
* Optional function!
