Glossary 283
messaging A SmartPAC PRO feature that allows e-mails to be sent from SmartPAC PRO
to networked computers, pagers, text-enabled cell phones and other devices.
This feature is set up in SmartView.
NEMA 12 A rating that certifies that an electrical device is protected against dust, water,
and oil.
ninety degree
(90°) stop-time
test A test required to set the proper safety distance for personnel-guarding devices,
including light curtains, two-hand controls, and type-B movable barriers. This
test checks the stopping time of the press at its most critical stopping point,
normally the midpoint of the downstroke (i.e., 90°), while the press is running in
Continuous mode (or Single-stroke if the press does not have a selector setting
for Continuous). Stopping time is a value required in the ANSI formula for
calculating the safety distance.
object
sensitivity A value required in deriving the depth penetration factor for a light curtain.
Object sensitivity specifies the smallest diameter object that a light curtain can
detect anywhere in its field.
on-off setting
Stroke angle settings at which the cam channel is to turn “on” and “off.”
OSHA Stands for Occupational Safety and Health Administration, a government
agency that has established regulations for mechanical power presses including
presence-sensing devices for point-of-operation guarding.
pinch point The hazardous area between the upper and lower die from which OSHA
mandates that the operator should be protected by installation of safety
equipment such as light curtains, two-hand controls, and other barriers.
position sensor A magnetic proximity switch used to check the crankshaft angle reading
provided by the resolver. This device consists of a magnet which can be
mounted on the crankshaft (or other shaft) and a stationary sensor. Whenever
the resolver reading at the point in the stroke at which the sensor is mounted
changes relative to the signal created by the magnet, SmartPAC PRO generates
a fault.
reset A command issued by the operator that allows the press to resume operation
after it has been stopped due to a malfunction. The “reset” command clears the
fault message from the SmartPAC PRO display. The command is issued by
pressing RESET.
response time The length of time it takes SmartPAC PRO to activate the machine’s brake.
