This page makes it possible to quickly programme a bend, and/or briefly stop
production to perform a single bend without modifying or losing data in the
production programme.
PROGRAMMING A BEND
Enter the thickness and the tools if they differ from the product in the
course of production.
To speed up programming, the p/m fields as well as the material are
taken over from sequence 1 of the product currently in hand. The
modification of these data does not affect the programme that is running.
Enter the angle of the bend in the field
Enter the height Lof the wing (external measurement) and the position of
the X gauge will be calculated automatically.
or
directly enter the distance at which the X
gauge is to be positioned.
Enter the length of the bend.
The system automatically calculates the pressure and bending.
Possibly also enter,
ohow long the pressure is to be maintained (if not pro-
grammed, the default is = 0.5 s),
othe retraction of the gauge,
othe reduction in bending speed,
oslow lifting, etc.
L

PAGE 6 USER GUIDE DNC 60 PS
Press the START button or the pedal and the axes will position to the de-
sired values. The numerical command will automatically go into semi-
automatic mode.
Actuate the pedal to bend.
When the beam returns, the DNC switches to programming mode.
You can now enter new data or actuate the pedal for a new bend.
Hit the key to return to production mode.
EXPLANATION OF THE FIELDS
See Explanation of the fields page 8.

CREATING A PRODUCT PAGE 7
CREATING A PRODUCT
This paragraph explains how to programme a product as well as the method
for correcting and recording it.
THE SEQUENCE PAGE
This page displays all the bending information for the current sequence.
That is the requested position of the Y and X (R, etc.) axes, the pressure, the
gauge retraction, the crowning, the dwell time, etc.
Important This page displays the result of the calculations made when programming a
product in the L-alpha page with definition of the bending order.
The operator can modify these values if necessary (especially the retraction,
the dwell time, the top dead centre).
However he must avoid directly modifying the Y and X values calculated by
the DNC.
If modifications should be necessary for these axes, the correction page has
to be used.
Hint An operator can directly programme a product in this page, without "pass-
ing" through the L-alpha page and definition of the bending order.
This simplifies the manipulations a great deal, since all the information re-
quired for the bending are on this page.
To reach the sequence page, press the key.
The first press displays the dimensions page in large characters.
A second press displays all the dimensions and functions of the current se-
quence in small characters.
This page is displayed during the powering-on of the DNC.
To change from one sequence to another, press the or key.
When the last sequence of the program is reached, the small LED of the
key lights up. At this moment, when pressing the key, a new se-
quence is created with the same contents as the last sequence. A message
COPIED is displayed.
On this page, the key is used to move the cursor from one significant
field to another.
The key is used to move the cursor across all the fields. This function
can be deactivated in the machine parameters.
If a product is removed, the data contained in the tool fields, the thickness
field and the material information fields continue to be displayed. This saves
the operator from having to reprogramme unchanged data.

EXPLANATION OF THE FIELDS
PNumber of the product in the working memory.
P+ Number of the following product when there is a
sequence of programmes.
NBending order (sequence) number to be made
and the total number of bends for the product.
CY Number of sequence repetitions.
(programmed 0, the sequence is jumped)
Th Material thickness.
The Greek symbol "Sigma" indicates the tensile
and rupture strength.
This field, as well as those showing the type of
material, can be hidden (see the preferences page
in the machine parameters).
If this field is hidden, the default value is steel 45
kg/mm2, but other values can be defined in the ad
hoc field in the machine parameters.
p/d Number of the punch/die pair associated with the
bend to be made.
In the P or D field press to display the list
of tools.
Select the tool in the list then press again to
return.
CR/ri Number of bends requested when working with
ideal curve (min. 4), and internal bending radius.

CREATING A PRODUCT PAGE 9
--MEM-- This column contains either the values calculated
by the system when simulating, or the values
programmed by the operator.
--POS-- This column indicates the real axes' positions.
--COR-- This column contains all the sequence and prod-
uct corrections introduced on the
CORRECTION page.
#The , Y1, Y2,etc. fields are dependant on the axes programmed in
the numerical control.
L Height of the wing after bending. The DNC will
automatically calculate the position of the back
gauge of axis X.
QNumber of product sequence repetitions. Quan-
tity of products to be produced. The Q field is
displayed only if the parameter in the
PREFERENCES page is activated.
Lmat Bending length.
TON Bending force.
Rx Back gauge retraction. The operator indicates in
mm the retraction distance. If nothing is pro-
grammed, the beam doesn't stop at the CP. No
retraction.
If value 0 is introduced, the beam stops at the
CP, then executes immediately the bend without
carrying out a retraction.
The field between the Rx and the retraction
value serves to define the retraction mode.
_ = the beam stops at the CP and waits till the
retraction is made, in order to carry out the
bend.
1 = the beam stops at the CP, then continues
immediately, at the same time as the retrac-
tion is carrying out.
Ext start If nothing is programmed in this field, the axes
start automatically from the BDC, from the CP
or from the TDC, depending on the choice made
in the machine parameters.
If 1is programmed, the start will be made as a
function of the configuration made by the con-
structor.
- In most of the configurations, it will be suffi-
cient to give a down command. At this com-
mand, the axes take position, then a second
down command has to be given, in order to
move the beam.
L

PAGE 10 USER GUIDE DNC 60 PS
- In other configurations, the provided start
button must be pressed.
- When the message TOL ZONE appears, that
means that a down command has been given
and that the axes are not positioned in the
current sequence. Give a start with the pro-
vided button or on the front panel of the
DNC.
Vy Beam bending speed.
Programmed at 0, the speed is 1 mm/s.
Programmed at 9, the speed is 10 mm/s.
(If the machine is capable of reaching this speed)
Vy Rising speed from BDC to CP.
Programmable from 0 (slow) to 9 (fast).
Allows to vary the speed at which the beam rises
to the CP. (Function depending on the machine's
hydraulics).
ΔTDwell time.
TDC Distance from top dead centre.
SP Distance from the beam speed changing point.
(Switch Point).
F1 - F5, Cr Value of the auxiliary functions F1 to F5 and
crowning.
The auxiliary functions are displayed only if the
function is configured.
These fields can also be re-programmed by the user.
However, certain fields are related, that is modifying one provokes a
modification of the other.
