Setting the Auto Carry-up Angle
WPC 2000’s Auto Carry-up feature (also called Operator Station Mute) enables the press to
complete a stroke whenever the operator releases the Run/Inch palm buttons after the ram has
passed the Auto Carry-up Angle.
The Auto Carry-up Angle is factory-set to 149° if your WPC 2000 has light curtain firmware
and to 170° if you have non-light curtain firmware. If you change the auto carry-up default
setting, you must use an angle value that is at or past the crankshaft angle at which the pinch
point openings on the press have closed to less than 1/4 in. (6 mm). Pinch points that are less
than 1/4 in. (6 mm) are considered non-hazardous to the operator.
With large presses where the stroke is long and press speed is slow, you must ensure that the
operator cannot release the buttons and reach the pinch point before it closes. This applies
only when Two-hand Control is used to safeguard the point of operation (without light
curtain) and only if any opening allowing access to the pinch point is 1/4 in. (6 mm) or larger.
INCORRECT AUTO CARRY-UP ANGLE
• Ensure that the Auto Carry-up Angle is correct. If the operator can reach the pinch point, the
Auto Carry-up Angle must be set so that any hazardous openings are smaller than 1/4 in. by the
time the crankshaft reaches the Auto Carry-up Angle.
• Determine the Auto Carry-up Angle for each tool, based on the crank angle at which the tool’s
hazardous openings are smaller than 1/4 in.
• Change the Auto Carry-up Angle to the correct value when you change tools.
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
PREVENT CHANGES TO AUTO CARRY-UP ANGLE WHEN SETTINGS KEY IS PRESENT
Use option switch 7 to prevent anyone from making changes to the Auto Carry-up Angle (see
Switch 7 – Disabling Access to Stop-time Limit and Auto Carry-up Angle Settings, page 3-29).
Failure to comply with these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD WHEN WORKING INSIDE THE ENCLOSURE
Turn off and disconnect power from the WPC 2000 clutch/brake control, the press and any other
machinery it is connected to before working inside the enclosure. This includes power to the press
motor.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
The following Auto Carry-up function also applies to Foot Control. For more information about
using Foot Control for Single Stroke mode, see Single-stroke, Foot Operation, page 4-15 and
Enabling Foot Control in a Foot Switch, page 3-27.
