Atlas™ Auto 40T Hydraulic Press

indicator in place of the RUN status symbol. The Increase/Set Load 
symbol on the Menu Bar will also be illuminated. 

The “Rdy” or “RDY” status means that the “Pump up to” load could be 
re-applied at this point by pressing the start button (

11

) again. 

However, if a different “Pump up to” load is to be applied, press the 
accept (

16

) button to take you into the load setting routine. 

When the sample is to be removed from the press, wait until the 
Display Screen (

4

) status shows “Rdy” or “RDY” before raising the 

safety guard (

5

) and removing the sample. 

The Atlas™ Auto 40T press is now ready to accept a further sample. 
 

The Safety Guard 

 
The Atlas™ Auto 40T press incorporates a front safety guard 
mechanism (

5

) that is crucial for the safe operation of the press. The 

front (and rear) safety guards are made from PETG, a glycol modified 
polyethylene terephthalate,

 

which is a clear, transparent material 

offering a high impact resistance to contain any work within the 
pressing area in the unlikely event there is an immediate release of 
stored energy in the sample. When the guard is closed (down) and the 
Rdy/RDY status is indicated, the press is enabled to apply a load to a 
sample. When the guard is open (up) the press operation is disabled. 
(No power to the motor is allowed). However, the “Pump up to” load 
can be adjusted with the guard in the open or closed position. 
 
If the electrical power to the press is disconnected, or there is a cut in 
the power when a sample has been compressed and is still under load, 

always 

ensure that the front safety guard (

5

) remains in the closed 

(down) position before re-establishing power to the press. The 
indications that this event has happened will be that the power switch 
(

1

) on the front panel (

2

) is showing the green (on) color bar, but the 

electronic Display Screen (

4

) is blank. When the press is re-powered, 

as a safety measure, the press automatically dumps any stored load 
and any program sequence will have been aborted.

 

When the Display 

Screen (

4

) indicates “Rdy” or “RDY” the safety guard (

5

) can be 

opened, or any previously applied program can be started again by 
pressing the start button (

11

).
