Introduction to DiPro 1500
DiPro
®
1500 is an easy-to-use die protection controller which will protect your dies and
press from damage. It allows unattended press operation and eliminates the tedious
settings and adjustments necessary with other units.
You make all settings for your sensors at the keyboard. And because DiPro is a
microprocessor, you can save all your settings for up to 200 tools in DiPro's electronic
memory. You just recall the settings when you use the tool again.
If you have the optional DiPro programmable cam switch installed, you can also set
timing for your feed, lubricator, part blowoff, transfer devices, etc. You set the portion of
the stroke these devices will activate. The programmable cam switch will then turn these
devices on during the portion of the stroke you set.
How DiPro 1500 will benefit your operation
The DiPro 1500 operates in theory like other die protection systems in use today. You
place sensors on and around your tooling to detect malfunctions such as stock buckling,
misfeeds, die overload, and improper part ejection. The DiPro controller stops the press
whenever any sensor signals a malfunction, protecting your press and die from damage
(see "Theory of Operation" for a complete explanation of how DiPro works).
Here are some of the benefits you will come to appreciate when using your DiPro 1500.
• You make all settings for sensors and cam channels (if installed) right at the
operator console using DiPro's liquid crystal display (LCD) and keyboard.
• There are no complicated instructions to learn. The messages that appear in the
LCD display screen tell you what to do next.
• You can turn unused sensors off at the console and DiPro will ignore them.
• All timing for green (cyclic) sensors is set individually. Timing signals are called
ready signals. DiPro makes a decision to stop the press at the end of each sensor's
individual ready signal. You do not run the risk of delaying a "stop" decision for
all sensors until so late in the stroke that the press cannot be stopped before bottom
dead center (BDC).
• All settings for a die are automatically saved in DiPro 1500's non-volatile memory
(with battery back-up). To use the same settings when you run the same job again,
you simply re-load your stored tool number and you are ready to go. DiPro can
save up to 200 tool numbers.
• DiPro gives you specific error messages on its display screen when a malfunction
occurs, telling you the sensor that signalled the malfunction, stroke angle where it
occurred (when appropriate), and even the name of the sensor in question.
