safety distance The distance from the pinch point that OSHA requires safety equipment such as
light curtains, two-hand controls, and type-B movable barriers to be mounted to
assure the safety of the operator. The safety distance is calculated using a
precise formula set by OSHA regulations and/or ANSI standards. The formula
uses the results of the ninety degree (90 ) stop-time test.
security access Settings made in Initialization that control the amount of access SmartPAC PRO
users are given to SmartPAC PRO functions.
slow RPM A setting used with the auto advance feature that indicates the slowest speed at
which the press will be operated.
smart stop A type of stop programmed for a die protection sensor that sends an emergency
stop to the press when a sensor fault occurs before the critical angle or a top stop
if the fault occurs after the critical angle. See
critical angle , emergency stop , and
top stop .
stopping angle The number of degrees of crankshaft rotation required for the press to stop after
a “stop” command is issued. The stopping angle is calculated by subtracting the
crankshaft position when the dual safety valve (DSV) is closed from the press’s
position when it actually stops. The stopping angle is useful in determining
where to set Top Stop and in die-protection settings.
stopping time The length of time it takes the crankshaft to stop moving after the Dual Safety
Valve (DSV) deenergizes.
suppressor A component that reduces or eliminates electrical noise.
top stop A signal sent to the press in response to a malfunction that stops the press at the
top of its current stroke (0
°
).

multiple tools, then use as a “template” to copy the common settings to those
tools.
