Glossary GL-3
messaging A SmartPAC 2 feature that allows e-mails to be sent from
SmartPAC 2 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 2
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 2 display. The command is issued by pressing the
RESET key.
